FrameMaker Publishing Server dashboard

FMPS provides a simple, web-based user interface using which you can:

• Create, manage, and schedule publication tasks

• Create and use presets to quickly apply and populate settings to the repetitive tasks with similar settings

• Manage and view task logs

• Use in-app API documentation to create custom scripts for scheduling and publishing tasks

Once you have installed FMPS on a machine, you can access it on the network from any machine to use it.

A.

Add New <Task/Preset> drop-down - Depending on which tab you are in, this drop-down allows you to create and duplicate Tasks and Presets.

B.

The Run button: To run tasks, select one or more tasks and click Run.

Note: If you have scheduled a task to run, then it cannot be added to the scheduled queue again. If you want to run the task using the Run button, then you must first remove the scheduled task from the task scheduling queue.

C.

Incremental search: Search for a Task or Preset name (depending on the tab you are on) - as you type text, FMPS finds matches the text and displays them in the list

D.

Autorefresh settings: You can enable autorefresh for FMPS and specify the number of seconds after which FMPS automatically refreshes

By clicking on the column names, you can sort the list of tasks by that column. The tasks are color coded: green are successful, red are failed, and orange are queued.
