RecoStar Professional Extraction activity

Project file

The settings for classification and extraction are stored in a project file, which you create using RecoStar Design Studio. Specify the path to this file here.

Process unprocessed or invalid documents only

Select to extract only those documents that have not been successfully validated yet.

Save classify/extraction duration into sub-documents

Select to store the processing duration per document.

Use region from project for unrecognized fields

Select to acquire the defined field zone if no field value has been read.

Process document as multi-page form

Select to process multi-page documents. If selected, each page must be supplied as a separate medium. Fields extracted on the pages are transferred to XBOUND depending on the mapping configuration. The field names on all forms must be unique to prevent mutual overwriting.

For multi-page documents, normally the RecoStar project contains a separate form for each page. When mapping RecoStar forms to XBOUND document types, only the determined form of the first page is considered.

Delete any existing field values on repeated extraction

On repeated extraction of a document, normally field values exist. By default, the new field values are appended to the existing ones. If this option is selected, the existing field values are deleted first. This only happens for fields where new field values are available.

With full-page OCR

Select to perform an additional full-page recognition. For this to be done, a new FullPageField  "_FullPageField_" is added to the RecoStar project at runtime. The result will be acquired as an XBOUND engine result.

Use OCR image

This option allows for acquiring RecoStar's preprocessed (deskewed, despeckled, etc.) images as new XBOUND media. The geometries of the fields are adjusted in this case, and all extraction results are attached to the new image. The acquired medium is referenced by a new medium field "ReferenceToOriginalMedium" with the identifier of the original medium.

Image selection

Select whether to extract TIFF or JPEG images.

Apply to the following document types

Select to extract only documents of certain document types. Then select all the document types that are to be extracted. If documents without types are to be extracted as well, select the No document type option.

License type

Select which type of RecoStar license you own and want to use for this project.

OCR mapping button

Opens the OCR mapping dialog, where you can configure how documents are to be classified and assign the interpretation results to XBOUND fields.

Import button

Imports settings from an XML file that was previously created using Export.

Export button

Exports the settings to an XML file. Specify the file name and location. You can then import the XML file to get the same settings.

Check regular expression link

Opens a test form, where you can check a regular expression.
