Initialize the Layout Classifier for Your Project

When you first create a project, the project has no Layout Classifier. This is true even if some classes have layout classification enabled. Layout classification is used for classes with documents that have a consistent layout. Forms and invoices are examples of documents successfully classified using layout classification.

Note If the Delete Delete icon button is disabled, the Layout Classifier is not initialized for your project.

To use layout classification in your project, you can initialize the Layout Classifier by following these steps:

  1. On the Project tab, in the Configuration group, select Project Settings Project Settings icon.
  2. Click the Classification tab to view the classification settings.
  3. In the Layout Classification group, click the Properties button for the Layout Classifier.

    The Layout Classifier Properties window is displayed.

  4. Optionally, configure the layout classification settings.
  5. Click OK to save your changes and close the Layout Classifier Properties window.

    The window is closed, the Layout Classifier is initialized, and the Reset button is enabled.

  6. Optionally, click OK to close the Project Settings window.
  7. Optionally, add training documents to the Classification Set.
  8. On the Process tab on the Ribbon, in the Train group, click Separation & Classification.

    The documents in your Classification Set are trained using the newly initialized Layout Classifier.

  9. Save the changes to your project.
  10. Optionally, test your classification settings.
