Changing the fingerprint creation method

The application framework that is generated by the Application wizard uses the image analysis method for fingerprint creation. All of the pages in the TravelDocs application are printed from a computer. So, you must convert the application to use full page recognition with the OCR_SR engine.

About this task

To change the fingerprint creation method, you must edit two of the rulesets that are defined on the Datacap Studio Rulemanager tab. The FingerprintAdd ruleset runs whenever you add a fingerprint to the fingerprint library. PageID generates the runtime fingerprints and matches them to determine the type of each incoming page. You can modify these rulesets to complete full page recognition instead of image analysis.

Procedure

To modify the FingerprintAdd and Page ID rulesets:

  1. On the Datacap Studio Rulemanager tab, in the Rulesets pane, select the FingerprintAdd ruleset and click Lock/Unlock ruleset (padlock) to lock the ruleset for editing.
  2. Expand the FingerprintAdd ruleset completely.
  3. Right-click the AnalyzeImage action and choose Remove.
  4. Click the Actions library tab.
  5. Expand the OCR_SR library and select RecognizePageOCR_S.
  6. Make sure FingerprintAdd: Other Function 1 is selected in the Rulesets pane.
  7. Click Add to function.
  8. In the Rulesets pane, click Save. Then, click Lock/Unlock ruleset and select Publish ruleset.
  9. Select the PageID ruleset and click Lock/Unlock ruleset to lock the ruleset for editing. Then, expand the ruleset and the PageID rule.
  10. Remove the AnalyzeImage action and replace it with the RecognizePageOCR_S action. If necessary, use Up arrow or Down arrow to move the action to the correct position within the function.
  11. In the Rulesets pane, click Save. Then, click Lock/Unlock ruleset and select Publish ruleset.
