Question:
What is to be considered when using DocuWare Tiffmaker5?
Answer:
- Before you can create the first TIFFMAKER template, you must have started up the DocuWare client at least once. Otherwise, no DocuWare basket will be available for configuring TIFFMAKER, and the definition of a basket is mandatory for storage.
- If you specify a RECOGNITION template in the TIFFMAKER configuration, the file cabinet used for RECOGNITION must have the same mode as the file cabinet in TIFFMAKER. This means that both file cabinets must be either in DocuWare 4 or DocuWare 5 mode.
- The basket specified in TIFFMAKER and the file cabinet must also have the same mode, i.e. either DocuWare 4 or DocuWare 5.
- You can use the TIFFMAKER advanced printing preferences to specify whether TIFFMAKER reads the data specified by a RECOGNITION template from the print stream or using OCR.
If the data is read from the print stream, i.e. "TXT on", there is no risk of the recognition errors that can occur with OCR, although in a very few cases the data cannot be read at all (e.g. when printing scanned documents). In these cases you should set "TXT off", so that the data is read using OCR.
You can access the TIFFMAKER advanced printing preferences as follows:
Select the TIFFMAKER you want from the list of printers and open the DocuWare TIFFMAKER Properties dialog box from the context menu. Now click on the General tab and then on Printing Preferences, and in the window that opens, click on Advanced… . As Printer Features you can selct between TXT on and TXT off.
With operation systems as of of Windows Vista you set the TIFFMAKER settings within DocuWare Administration: Menu Local > TIFFMAKER Configuration.
