KB185611666: Automation Engine - Error When Adding Dynamic Marks

Summary

When applying a Dynamic Marks set that contains Color Patches, the task fails with an error.

Getting the following error in Automation Engine when trying to apply the marks file:

"ERROR: Dynamic Marks error : Unknown mark type AIDynamicMarks-ColorPatch".

There is no solution for this as Color Patches are not supported in Automation Engine 16.

Image mark and the text area marks + printing only, technical only, different Fill and Stroke are not supported either.

The workaround is to create Color Patches as custom dynamic and text marks.
