PJL wrap PDF component
It is possible to add PJL sequences into a PDF file. This can e.g. be used, if you want to print a PDF directly in the PDF format, and still want to have full printer control e.g. for tray selection, output bin, stapling or other MFP (Multi Function Printer) related options. The PJL sequences can be added directly to the printers via the printer settings, on the Extra PJL commands component, and the new workflow component, PJL wrap PDF can be used for putting PJL commands into a PDF file before you send the PDF to the printer e.g. via the To printer component.
The PJL wrap PDF workflow advanced, create document component can be inserted after a component, that has PDF as the output payload e.g. Create PDF document. The output payload of the PJL wrap PDF component is PDFPJL, which indicates that the PDF file has been wrapped in PJL commands.
The PJL wrap PDF component has no parameters:

Wrap the PDF (found in the payload) into the PJL sequence, that was previously set.
