Summary
A task which tries to apply a smart mark set, fails and you get the following error messages:
ERROR: Mark marker not registered Removing mark. ERROR: SmartMark set not applied ERROR: Error while applying SmartMarks could not register user - missing mark marker
This can happen in any task that:
- Has an option to apply smart marks.
- Is not a Step & Repeat task.
E.g. FlexRip, FlexProof, Export to PDF, etc.
Symptoms
- Automation Engine tasks fail.
- The task log contains the errors mentioned above.
Solution
The smart mark set contains one or more marks which refer to Step & Repeat related information.
E.g. A mark named Position Mark which uses a formula to calculate a position. This formula contains parameters such as:
- GridHeight1
- GridWidth1
- Gap1
- NumberOfGrids, etc.
Some parameters are only available when you create the smart mark set in Plato.
Smart mark sets with these kind of parameters, can only be used on Step & Repeat related tasks, such as:
- Import JDF Step & Repeat
- Step & Repeat CAD based
- Step & Repeat Tabular
- Step & Repeat Template based
| If... | Then... |
|---|---|
| You need to place the Smart Mark Set, but the task that fails is not a Step & Repeat task. | Take one of the Step & Repeat tasks mentioned above to place the marks. |
| You want to place marks which are not related to Step & Repeat settings. | Use a different Smart Mark Set. Choose one that was created in PackEdge and not in Plato. |
