There are two types of pidgets - those that change the digital ink settings and those that change the pen settings. At the
moment, only digital ink pidgets are available but future versions of PlanetPress Suite will offer pen settings pidgets.
Available pidgets are:
l Stroke Width:Changes the width of the digital ink in the pen.
l Stroke Color:Changes the color of the digital ink in the pen.
Capture Field Masks
When using a Field Type of Custom or Regular Expression, the mask to be used must be set with a Field Mask.
To open the Mask List
1. Create a new Capture Field Area
2. Set the Capture Field Type to User Area
3. Set the Field Style to Multi-Area Field
4. Change the Mask Type to either Custom or Regular Expression.
5. Next to the Format List, click the Edit Masks button.
To add a new mask to the list
1.
Click on the button to add a new entry.
2. Double-click in the Name box and enter a name for the expression.
3. Double-click in the Value box and enter the desired expression (see below).
Custom Masks
Custom masks are not as powerful as regular expressions but they offer two distinct advantages. First, Custom masks will
automatically divide the Multi-Area Field in which they are used into the correct number of expected boxes and any static char-
acters used in the mask will output in the Capture Field Box when printing. Second, Custom masks are simpler to use and have
a one-on-one relationship between the mask and its output.
Accepted Characters
Each character, except for \, is deemed to be a single expected character, so the number of captured characters is not variable
l 9 :Indicates any numeric character from 0 to 9.
l A:Indicates an alphabetic character from A to Z. The character will be converted to uppercase.
l X:Indicates an alphanumeric character from 0 to 9 or Ato Z. Alphabetical characters will be converted to uppercase.
l \ followed by any character:Indicates a literal character. These characters will not be written by the client but rather
output in the mask when printing the Capture Document.
Examples
These examples should clarify how the accepted characters should be used:
