Defining the recognition zones

Next, you need to define the recognition zones for each of the new page types.

Procedure

  1. Define the zones on the Meals page.
    1. In the Fingerprints pane, select the Meals page.
    2. In the Image View pane, click Zoom to enlarge the page so you can see the fields clearly.
    3. In the Document hierarchy pane, click Lock DCO for editing.
    4. In the Document hierarchy pane, expand the Meals page so you can see all of the fields and subfields.
    5. Select the Meals_Total field and draw a bounding box around the total cost beneath the line item grid.
      Tip: If you create the Meals_Details zone first, you cannot draw the Meals_Total zone inside it. Therefore, you are drawing the Meals_Total zone first.
    6. Select the Meals_Grid field. Then, draw a bounding box around the grid items. Because you do not know how many line items there might be on the actual page images, extend the bounding box to the bottom of the page.
    7. Select the Meals_Line_Item field and draw a bounding box around the first line item.
    8. Select the Meals_Line_Item >Date field and draw a box around the date in the first line item.
    9. Repeat to create zones for the Description and Cost fields.
    10. In the Document hierarchy pane, click Save.
  2. Define the zones on the Other_Charges page.
    1. In the Fingerprints pane, select the Other_Charges page.
    2. Make sure that the document hierarchy is still locked for editing. Then, expand the Other_Charges page so that you can see all of the fields and subfields.
    3. Select the Other_Charges_Total field and draw a bounding box around the total cost beneath the line item grid.
    4. Select the Other_Charges_Grid field and draw a bounding box around the grid items. Extend the bounding box to the bottom of the page as you did for the Meals page.
    5. Select the Other_Charges_Line_Item field and draw a bounding box around the first line item.
    6. Select each of the subfields in turn and draw a bounding box around each field in the first line item.
    7. In the Document hierarchy pane, click Save and then click Unlock DCO.
