This section describes the steps involved in batch processing, how to initiate each step, and the manual processing options available to the user during a batch.

Start Batch[edit | edit source]

Start the batch by pressing the Run Job button (green traffic light icon) on the toolbar or from the File Menu.

Import or Scan Files[edit | edit source]

Depending on the Input Type, Scanning will start automatically and/or images are moved from the Input folder to a temporary processing folder.

If the Input Type is set to Both then Scanning will happen first.

Image clean-up, OCR, and barcode recognition are performed automatically.
