Scan Properties Window - Endorsing Tab
Use this tab to select endorsing preferences for the Scan module.
Related Tab
The properties available on this window reflect the options supported by Kofax Capture, and not the options supported by the source device used to process the batch. The endorsing properties you select here are validated for the source device when the batch is created from the Scan module or Batch Manager. If any property is not supported, a warning is displayed to the scan operator.
Prefix text
Enter a prefix for the endorser/annotation string. You can enter any length string from 1 to the maximum length supported by the source device.
Using Endorser Prefixesin the Kofax Capture Administrator's Guide.
Values button

Endorsing enabled
Enables endorsing.
Annotation enabled
Enables annotations.
Counter digits
Select the number of digits for the automatic counter. You can select from 1 to 32 digits. This option is unavailable if
Counter Increment Off
is checked. If you set a number greater than the maximum supported by the scanner, a warning
is issued when you scan in the
Scan
or
Quality Control
modules.
Text Offsets
Enter or specify the top and left position on the page for the endorser/annotation text. Not all scanners support text offsets.
- Top
-
Select or enter the top offset.
- Left
-
Select or enter the left offset.
Font Settings
These settings are used for annotation text only.
- Type
-
Select or enter a type size for your annotation text.
- Orientation
-
Select the orientation for your annotation text.
Some scanners do not support rotating the endorser text, or only support certain orientations. If you select an orientation not supported by your scanner, an error message is issued at scan time.
Counter Patch Code Control
These settings are only available if you enable incrementing and/or resetting the counter after a patch code.
- Patch code left offset (inches)
-
Enter a left offset for the patch code (in inches). The value you enter provides Kofax Capture a starting point for searching for a patch code, which could improve performance. If you enter 0, Kofax Capture searches anywhere in the horizontal direction for the patch code.
Note To determine the appropriate value, use one of the documents you intend to scan. Measure from the left edge of the document to a point near the middle of the patch code.
Skip first patch code
Select this check box to skip the first patch code detected. For example, suppose you are incrementing your counter after a Patch Type II is detected. If this option is enabled, the first Patch Type II detected for the batch has no effect on the counter. The next Patch Type II and each Patch Type II thereafter increments the counter.
This option applies to incrementing and resetting the counter.
Counter Increment

- By
-
Enter the increment value for the counter. For example, enter 1 to increment the counter by one whenever the value of the counter changes.
