ABSTRACT:
A method, computer program product and system for performing multiple actions on a single spool file. A Portable Document Format (PDF) server (PDF server is a component of a print server) identifies segments of a spool file by identifying Base Name Group (BNG) commands in the data stream generated by an application. A BNG command may indicate the beginning of a segment of a spool file. Upon identifying a segment of the spool file, the segment may be converted into a PDF file. An action, e.g., electronic mailing, faxing, printing, to be performed on the PDF file may be determined using the attributes of the segment converted into the PDF file. For example, an entry in a database configured to store a command to perform a particular action may be indexed using these segment attributes. In this manner, multiple actions may be performed on different segments of a spool file.
