Plan and Create the Production Form 53
ID Works Standard and Enterprise Version 5 Administrator’s Guide
Consider making the photo field on the Production Form the same
proportions as the photo field on the card. For example, if the photo
area on the card is square, make the photo field on the Production
Form square by entering the same number for Height as for Width on
the General tab of the Edit Field Properties [Photo] dialog box. On
the Advanced tab of the dialog box, select Crop Box With Shape of
This Field. This determines the shape of the black crop box with
sizing handles that appears when a photo file is opened. For some
cameras, it also determines the frame that appears around the
capture area in a live display.
Also consider selecting Automatically When Field Selected in the
Capture Initiation area of the Advanced tab. If this option is selected,
the image capture method you specified will automatically launch
when the Production operator enters the photo field. If this option is
not selected, the Production operator must make a menu selection or
double-click after entering the field.
You can specify where to store a photo, in the database or as a file
outside of the database, on the Storage tab of the Edit Field
Properties [Photo] dialog box. See “File Name Considerations” on
page 100. You can also specify the format in which the photo is
stored. Formats available are:
If you choose JPEG File Interchange Format or JPEG 2000 File
Format, you can also specify a compression factor or that the file be
compressed to a target file size.
