Description

One can print additional information below the job about the proof configuration (enable the Job Ticket option in the Layout Property tab of a proof server workflow). However, the info is limited to proof server information like the used EPL and workflow name. Information from the Pack Proof ticket (e.g.: the name of the color strategy) can't be retrieved by the proof server!

This KB article describes how you can print the color strategy name by means of a SmartMark.

2. Copy the attached SmartMark to the following location to make it available in the proof ticket:
