Setting up fingerprints on Forms template applications

You set up fingerprints on applications created from the Forms template that correspond to the field layout of the forms that you want to process.

To create fingerprints on Forms template applications:

1. Start FastDoc in Datacap Server mode.
2. Log in to your application created from the Forms template.
3. Click the Configure documents, pages, and fields icon.
4. In the Batch Structure pane, select the page for which you want to create fingerprints and click the Fingerprints tab.
5. In the Fingerprint Class field, select the default <New> fingerprint class.
   A list of the fingerprints that are assigned to the fingerprint class is displayed in the Fingerprint field.
   1. Click Add to create a new fingerprint class. Enter the name of the fingerprint class and click Add.
      You can name the class to correspond with the name of the client who sent the form to you.
   2. Select a fingerprint class and click Delete to delete a fingerprint class.
   3. Select a fingerprint and click Rename to change the name of an existing fingerprint class.
   4. Click Reload to refresh the list of fingerprint classes.
6. In the Fingerprints section:
   1. Click Add and go to the folder that contains the image to be used to create the fingerprint.
      For example, C:\Datacap\APT\Images\Input.
   2. Select the image and click Open.
      The fingerprint is added to the list of fingerprints.
   3. Click a fingerprint to display the fingerprint image on the Image tab.
   4. Double-click a fingerprint and use drag and drop to set the zones on the image.
   5. Click Zoom In or Zoom Out to enlarge or reduce the size of the fingerprint image.
   6. Select a fingerprint and click Delete to delete a fingerprint.
   7. Select a fingerprint and click Change class to to associate the fingerprint with another fingerprint class.
   8. Select a fingerprint and click Change page type to to associate the fingerprint with another page type.
7. Create fingerprint zones for the fields on the fingerprint file.
   If you want to draw zones on fields that contain zones, you must draw the smaller zones first. Then, you draw the zones in the parent fields that contain the smaller zones.
   1. Select the field in the Batch Structure pane.
   2. Click Zones on the Image tab.
   3. Click the field on the image and drag the cursor to draw the zone.
      The Position field displays the coordinates of the fingerprint zone.
   4. Click the edge of the zone and drag the straight arrow icon to resize the zone.
   5. Click the zone and drag the crossed arrows icon to move the zone.
   6. Highlight a fingerprint zone and click Clear Zone to delete fingerprint zone positions.
   Attention: You can update field zones from the Test tab while you are testing the rulesets and the images.

   Tip: If the wrong fingerprint was matched and you want to keep the existing fingerprint, select Add to create a new fingerprint and retain the existing fingerprint. If the format of the form was changed since the fingerprint was created and the correct fingerprint was matched, select Delete to remove the existing fingerprint. Then, click Add to create a fingerprint with the new format to replace the one that you deleted.
