Due to licensing restrictions, there are some functions in SimpleIndex that behave slightly differently when running in server mode than when running interactively. Mostly the only difference is in speed but sometimes it can be difficult to tell why output is different when running unattended.

The biggest difference between client and server is with bar code configurations. Server processing always uses the DTK engine unless the Advanced Barcode Server license is enabled. Some image conversion and processing options may also behave slightly differently, possibly affecting OCR.

Download the registry file (Administrator privileges required)

Or manually edit the registry by running RegEdit and browse to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\SimpleIndex\Misc

Create a String value called “UseServer” and set the value to “1” to force all jobs to use the server libraries.
