AppendAllImages_ByType

Syntax

bool AppendAllImages_ByType (StrParam)

Parameters

A string that matches the Type variable of the page.

Returns

True, if all of the TIFF images that match the specified type within the document have been appended to the end of the first matching TIFF image. Otherwise, False.

Level

Document level.

Details

This action will append (concatenate) all of the images, that are of the type specified by the input parameter, that are all within the same document to the first image of that type, creating one long image. Images are not appended across documents. Assuming you have a document where the first three pages are all the same matching type, the result of the action will modify the first image in the document to become a single continuous image like this:

• Page 1
• Page 2
• Page 3

If images are appended prior to recognition, the entire page area will be recognized and click-n-key enabled.

It is highly recommended that this action be used only documents that have a small number of pages, such as two or three pages per document. The size of the final composite image can quickly become larger than can be handled by some image viewers and possibly by subsequent actions. To keep memory usage to a minimum, it is also recommended that 1-bit Black and White images are used.

Example:

AppendAllImages_ByType("PO")

This example will append all of the images within a document that have a page type of PO.
