About Multi-Page Files

When scanning with Scan Batch to File (→P. 48) , Scan Batch to Mail (→P. 53) , or Scan Batch to

SharePoint (→P. 56) and when performing Save Open Image (→P. 70) , the Multi Page function can be

used to save multiple images to one TIFF or PDF file.

MultiPage Settings

MultiPage settings are made from a settings dialog box when Scan Batch to File (→P. 48) , Scan Batch to

Mail (→P. 53) , or Scan Batch to SharePoint (→P. 56) is selected for scanning.

Available MultiPage settings are determined by the file type (BMP, JPEG, TIFF, PDF or PowerPoint)

selected in the scan settings dialog box.

When BMP or JPEG is Selected

Only Single Page is available in the list box, and one image is saved per file. Besides, scanning information

can be included in the specified File Name by enabling Use Schema. About Schema (→P. 25)

When TIFF, PDF, or PowerPoint is Selected

• Single Page

Multiple scanned page images are saved as one image per file.

• Multi Page (All Pages)

All scanned page images are saved as one multi-page file.

• Multi Page (Specified Pages)

Page Number is enabled, and multiple scanned page images are saved to multiple multi-page files, each

with the specified number of pages.

When Multi Page (All Pages) or Multi Page (Specified Pages) is displayed in the list box, multiple page

images can be saved in one file.

Note

When Multi Page (Specified Pages) is selected, page images are saved to multiple multi-page files, divided

according to the number of pages specified in the Page Number field. Also, the batch separation type

specified in the Scan Batch to File (→P. 48) dialog box is changed to None.

About File Naming

Requirements and limitations of file names assigned to images scanned and saved by CapturePerfect are

described here.

About File Name Settings

After selecting the TIFF, PDF, or PowerPoint file type and specifying Multi Page (All Pages) or Multi Page

(Specified Pages) as the MultiPage Settings, multiple page images are saved in one file. About Multi-Page

Files (→P. 23)

About Schema

These settings are always applied to file/folder names saved when Single Page is selected as the

MultiPage Settings (→P. 24) . If no Schema settings have been made, a serial number consisting of four

digits (by default) is added to the specified file name. Example: docs0001.tif

File Name Settings

Selecting the check boxes in the Schema dialog box causes the checked information to be automatically

added to the names of files to be saved.

• The example file name reflects the effects selected by the check boxes.

• When Schema settings are performed with MultiStream settings, "Prim", "Seco", or “Tert” is added to the

specified file name.

The character strings to be added are as follows for each selected item:

• The Counter check mark cannot be cleared unless one of the following is selected: Barcode, Imprinter/

Addon, OCR, or Date.

• The Barcode, Imprinter/Addon and OCR check boxes cannot be selected at the same time.

• Barcode is valid when supported by the scanner, and when the Barcode Search scanner setting is

enabled. Up to four recognized barcode results can be added. However, the total number of characters

added cannot exceed 64.

• Selecting the OCR check box enables OCR recognition and adds the first 64 recognized characters to the

file name.

• If you use the value for Barcode or OCR, you can specify the way to add detected character strings to the

file name from the list box.

– Use detected string

Uses the detected strings as the file name. Invalid letters for file name are displayed in underscores.

– Use detected string of the back image if not detected

When no strings are detected, uses the strings detected in previous image. If there is no detected

strings in the first image, no strings are added.

– Follow conversion rule

Converts the detected strings following the conversion table made in advance, and creates the file

name using the converted strings.

– Undetected

When no strings are detected, specifies the strings of up to eight to add to the file name. This option

is available only when Use detected string is selected.

• Imprinter/Addon is valid when supported by the scanner, adding to the file name first 64 letters of the

character string that is printed with the imprinter, or the strings added on.

• Date adds the year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and millisecond of scanning as up to 17 digits. You

can select the date style to add from the list box.

• Scanning Side adds "Fron" or "Back" to the file name to indicate front-side and back-side images, respectively.

• The following character strings are added to the file name when selecting Image Type, Resolution and

DropOut.

• When performing Detect Color or Binary Image, a conversion example of the detected type is appended.

• If you select the Insert separator check box, you can insert the separating character you select from the

list box between the character strings added to the file name. However, you cannot select different

separating character for each item.

Folder Name Settings

Selecting the check boxes in the Schema dialog box causes the checked information to be automatically

added to the names of folders to be saved.

• The example folder name reflects the effects selected by the check boxes.

The character strings to be added are as follows for each selected item:

• The Counter check mark cannot be cleared unless one of the following is selected; Barcode, OCR, or

Date.

• The Barcode and OCR check boxes cannot be selected at the same time.

• Barcode is valid when supported by the scanner, and when the Barcode Search scanner setting is

enabled. Up to four recognized barcode results can be added. However, the total number of characters

added cannot exceed 64.

• Selecting the OCR check box enables OCR recognition and adds the first 64 recognized characters to the

file name.

• If you use the value for Barcode or OCR, you can specify the way to add detected character strings to the

folder name from the list box.

– Use detected string

Uses the detected strings as the folder name. Invalid letters for folder name are displayed in

underscores. If you want to use the OCR recognition result for the document with the patch code

printed as the folder name, use the PATCH T (FILE A).

– Use detected string of the back image if not detected

When no strings are detected, uses the strings detected in previous image. If there is no detected

strings in the first image, no strings are added.

– Follow conversion rule

Converts the detected strings following the conversion table made in advance, and creates the

folder name using the converted strings.

– Undetected

When no strings are detected, specifies the strings of up to eight to add to the folder name. This

option is available only when Use detected string is selected.

• Date adds the year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and millisecond of scanning as up to 17 digits. You

can select the date style to add from the list box.

• If you select the Insert separator check box, you can insert the separating character you select from the

list box between the character strings added to the folder name. However, you cannot select different

separating character for each item.

• The Counter item adds a serial counter specified by Digit Number, Start Value and Step Value.

• The counter starts from Start Value. When scanning with the "Add counter value automatically" check box

is selected, searches in the corresponding folder for the files whose part of names posterior to the counter

are completely-consistent, detects the biggest number, and adds the next number automatically.

Conversion Settings

Converts the detected character string into another string and use it as the file/folder name. You can set the

rule for converting here.

• If the items checked in Detected string are detected, they are converted into the specified character

string. You can switch on/off for each item by selecting Check all or Clear all.

• If Create/Edit is selected, you can add character strings to conversion target ones, or you can edit the

existing character string. Up to 100 strings can be specified. You can delete the registered strings by

selecting Delete.

• Selecting Import loads the character strings data from the file which is created in predefined format.

• Selecting Export saves the character strings data in predefined format.

About File Name Limitations

The file name for a saved image file together with its folder path name constitute the absolute path name,

which may not exceed 200 characters. If the file name would cause the absolute path name to exceed 200

characters, the file cannot be saved with that name.

memory shortage might occur when CapturePerfect is restarted. Please bear this warning in mind when

shutting CapturePerfect down with Split Screen enabled.
