Figure: Scan Client profile settings, “Advanced properties” tab

 

 

The following settings are possible in the “Advanced properties” tab:

 

Job directory

Scanned files from a scan job are stored at the path specified here before indexing/binding.

The default setting is: “C:\ScanLink”.

It is possible to use Windows variables (e.g. %Job_directory%) when specifying the path. This makes it easier to roll out server-based scan profiles.


 

 

Ensure that you select a different folder here to the exchange path for the Xtract transfer, otherwise there may be file conflicts or unintentional data loss.


 

Import directory

TIFF files can be imported from the path specified here for further processing. This settings enables a spatial and/or temporal separation of the scan process and the further processing (indexing) of a scan job. The path specified here is automatically shown under the folder column during the “Import” processing step.

It is possible to use Windows variables (e.g. %Import_directory%) when specifying the path. This makes it easier to roll out server-based scan profiles.

 

Import order

Here you can determine the sequence according to which the TIFF files are imported from the import directory. The criteria “by creation date” and “by file name” are possible.

 

Scan

Here you can select whether the scan should be in color or in black and white. If “Original” is selected, the current settings of the Twain scanner driver are adopted.

 

Image compression

Here you can choose whether and at which compression level the color scan files should be transferred to PROXESS.

Lossless = no compression

With loss = with compression, adjustable from 0–100%

See compression table

 

 

    

The compression is only carried out when the documents are transferred to the PROXESS archive. If the “with loss” option is activated, it is mandatory to perform a quality check of the archived files after archiving with the PROXESS Client.

 

The profile is available for all users

If this option is activated, the scan profile is available to all users who locally log in to this workstation.

 

This option is no longer available for PROXESS version 5+ R2 or later. Older scan profiles may still have this property. If the option is deactivated (this is e.g. a necessary condition for distributing a profile to other users via the PROXESS Management Console), this can no longer be reversed.

 

To transfer a scan profile to other work stations, the profile can be exported as an XML file or you can choose the central distribution of scan profiles via the PROXESS Management Console.

 

Output file resolution in DPI

This value must correspond to the Twain settings of the scanner. If you scan documents at a resolution of 300 DPI, you have to enter this value here. If the value entered here deviates from the value of the scanner, the later output (print) of the scanned files is distorted and deviates from the original size of the source document.


 

 

If the scanned files will be further processed with the document recognition and processing of PROXESS Xtract, the scans must have a minimum resolution of 300 DPI.


 

Hitlist number

If PROXESS query and PROXESS result fields were defined in the field properties, you can specify the maximum number of displayed hits with this entry. This results in a faster display of the hitlist. Additionally, only the latest results of the hitlist are displayed. Entries can range from 1 to 10,000. The default setting is 20 displayed hits per query.

 

Delete job folder after successful archiving

If this is activated, the job folder is deleted after the successful archiving of the job.


 

 

If automatic deletion isn’t activated, you should occasionally check the job directory and manually delete it if needed.


 

Profile color

To visually separate the scan profiles, you can set different background colors for each profile.

Force viewing

If this option is activated, the user must view all pages, including scanned pages without a barcode, in the document management area before transferring the scan batch into the archive and confirm each page as the succeeding page. The “Transfer” function will only be unlocked after each page is viewed.

Save

With Save, the applied settings are adopted in the current profile. If the button is inactive, the settings are still incomplete.

 

Cancel

Use Cancel to close the window without saving your entries/changes.

Help

With Help, you can open the online help.
