Connie,
PDF is supposed to be a device-independent format for CONTENT,
not PRODUCTION, information. JDF is the complementary format for
description of production information. There is no "plug-in" to
put production information into the PDF stream itself. You
obviously can select output "tray" at print time via driver/PPD
combination and feature selection.
