Import settings tab

Type a descriptive and unique name for Kofax Capture destination.

Provide additional information in this field. This is optional.

Select one of the configured XML schemas that should be used to interpret incoming XML documents. The default destination cannot have an XML type. This is optional.

Select the type of document content to be imported into Kofax Capture along with the order. For non-email documents, always select Body first and attachments.

• Body first and attachments

• Attachment first and body

• Attachments

• Only Body

• None

Select the desired option for importing the message header of the email. You can also include or exclude the message header of the attached emails.

• Exclude message header: Excludes the message header of the email.

• Include message header of email: Includes the message header of the main email.

• Include message header of email and embedded email(s): Includes the message header of the main email and the attached email(s).

  Additionally, select the Body option for the Handle body of nested emails as field in Document conversion tab of Message Connector Configuration.

The following table describes how the attached emails are segregated on the basis of their content-type and extension.

Select one of the following options to handle the extraction of nested messages described above:

• Import all attached emails as EML/MSG files: Imports the main email and all types of attached emails in the EML/MSG format.

• Extract nested messages: Extracts the main email, and all nested emails and their attachments as separate files.

• Extract nested messages and EML files: Imports the nested emails and EML files along with their attachments.

• Extract nested messages, EML and MSG files (Default): Import nested emails and EML/MSG files along with their attachments.

  • All the above are also applicable to the EML/MSG files which are referenced in the XML files.

  • Nested messages up to five levels are resolved for extraction. Nested messages beyond level five are always returned as EML/MSG file.

Enter the file extensions allowed for extraction. Make sure you provide a blank space between each file type entered. Also, a delimiter, semicolon (;) is inserted after each file type when you save the input.

For example, you can enter archive file types as follows: .zip .rar .7z .tar .gz. However, a delimiter is inserted once you save the option:

.zip; .rar; .7z; .tar; .gz

The following file types are supported:

If this option is not defined, only the message attachments are converted without extracting and converting the embedded files in the attachments.

If multiple files are embedded, each file is converted into a separate output file.

Select this check box if you want to include original document before document conversion.

Select this check box if you want to include original document in EML format.

Select this check box if you want to include original document in MSG format.

Select one of the following to import the original content to Kofax Capture or to save it to the Kofax Capture batch folder:

• Save to disk

• Import into Kofax Capture

Select your preferred conversion format (TIFF or PDF or both).

For information about the rules of applying VRS on the basis of the selected options, see Document extraction/processing rules.

Select the minimum and maximum limit for scaling. Kofax Import Connector upscales the image if it is smaller than the minimum value set, and downscales the image if it is larger than the maximum value set.

Auto select page orientation: Select to automatically set the page orientation depending on the image imported.

Keep aspect ration: Select to maintain the aspect ratio during conversion.

Select the content type in the document for conversion:

• Convert only non image content and normalize images: Converts non-image content and additionally normalizes images.

• Convert only non image content: Converts only the non-image content and images are not changed.

• Convert all content: Converts images as well as non-image content to configured format.

If you select to convert documents into images, select the resolution and color of the converted document. The supported combinations are:

• 200x200 DPI, black and white

• 200x200 DPI, color

• 200x200 DPI, grayscale

• 300x300 DPI, black and white

• 300x300 DPI, color

• 300x300 DPI, grayscale

Specify the image compression value. The value 100 means no compression. This only applies to grayscale and color TIFF images. Compression may affect image quality.

Select this option to render metadata and XML documents to PDF or TIFF format. The parameters Convert to and Conversion Mode are also applied to XML rendering.

• Show Files for Visual Designer: Displays the folder with files for Altova StyleVision. You can then use StyleVision to create a transformation style sheet that defines how information should be organized in PDF/TIFF format.

• Preview: Shows the preview of a rendered XML document (or the rendered metadata.)

Improves the quality of incoming images in order to make it easier for Kofax Capture to understand them.

• None: Disables VRS for all content.

• VRS all images: Applies VRS settings to all the converted images. That is, the files that were converted to image format by import connector are processed by VRS.

• VRS only original image content: Applies VRS processing only to the converted files for which the input file is in image format.

Click to display the VRS Settings window.

If VRS is enabled, to improve PDF documents, select this check box to use the VRS engine for PDF to TIFF conversion.

This option allows you to process larger PDF documents.

Select this option to use the VRS function for processing original content. When VRS is enabled, this option also creates a duplicate of original input image file. This option is only available when Include original content is selected.

This feature was available in Kofax Import Connector version 2.8.0.2 or older version.

Enter the number of messages to be grouped in one Kofax Capture batch. For example, with Batch size = 1, a new batch is created for each incoming message. With Batch size = 5, the Kofax Import Connector instance waits until five messages are available (unless the Batch timeout is reached before that) and then it creates a single batch with all messages.

• For folder import, each file is considered as a message.
• For email import, each email is considered as a message. The number of attachments in an email are not counted as a message.

Enter the timeout value in seconds. After this time, a batch is closed and sent to Kofax Capture, even if the maximum number of messages in a batch is not reached.

This is the Kofax Capture batch priority.
