A system and method for the assembly of multiple format digital files. A user is prompted to select an original file for further processing, whereupon the file is converted, when required, into a digital format. The user then selects the desired output formats corresponding to the files received in the file processing request associated with the original input file. When processing of each output is the same, the outputs are first converted into the desired output format and the user selects one or more basic operations or previously stored tasks to be performed in the processing of the output sets to form a new task. When each output requires different processing, the outputs are first converted into the desired output format and the user selects one or more basic operations or tasks for each output set to form multiple new tasks. The selected operations or tasks are then executed by the digital multifunction device and the newly generated task or tasks are stored for further use.
