7.5

The Comments tab, added in PlanetPress Suite 7.5, is common to all tasks. It contains a single text area (Task
comments)that lets you write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the
OKbutton, and are displayed in The Task Comments Pane.

Capture Fields Processor
The Capture fields Processor Action Task is used to update the Capture Database using information received from an incoming
PGCfile, which generally originates from a communication by the Anoto penDirector.
Input
This task requires a PGCfile that has been obtained from an Anoto Digital Pen that was used to write on documents generated
from the same PlanetPress Production installation.
Processing
The PlanetPress Capture Fields Processor action task receives and processes the information sent by the Anoto digital pen and
updates all the documents in the PlanetPress Capture Database using the information from the pen. Any ink in the pen is added
as an EPS(image)layer on the PDFinside the Capture Database. If a specific document needs to be closed to release its pat-
tern, this task does so.
During processing, ink is always applied to the document first and then the logic is applied for releasing patterns. This means
that even if a document is closed by a field set asFinal that was checked first, ink present in other fields will still be applied to
the document.
From version 7.5 and onwards, ICRis done on the ink, if the "Perform ICRRecognition"option is checked.
Error Handling
If the Capture Fields Processor generates a critical error during the processing of any document in the PGCfile, all of its actions
will be reverted. If your PGCfile contains multiple documents, even those documents that were processed before will revert.
It is strongly suggested to backup your PGCfile before using this task and to create an error handling process to capture these
errors.
Logical errors do not cause this task to exit. For example, if a List Item Capture Field is set to only accept a single option but
contains ink in more than one option, or if a Capture Field that does not accept re-writing receives more ink, the task will still
complete. The inks that are relevant to logical errors are still added to the PDFdocument, but they are added on a separate
"error"layer.
Output
This task outputs the PGCfile it received along with metadata that contains the documents that have been updated by this
task. The metadata can be used to do post-processing of the file using Capture Conditions, or directly through other metadata
tools. The structure of the output metadata added by Capture is the following:
l Document Level
l CapCloseDate:Date at which the document was closed by Capture Field Generator. Blank if the document is
still open.
