text written in lowercase.
At 0, the font size must be exactly the same between two fragments. At 1, a greater variance in font size is accepted.
Accepted values range from 0 to 1. The default value is 0.65, recommended values are between 0.60 and 1.00.
Gap
Defines how spaces between two fragments are processed. If the space between two fragments is too small, the text extrac-
tion will sometimes eliminate that space and count the two fragments as a single word. To resolve this, the Gap setting can be
changed. The lower this value, the higher the chance of a space being added between two characters. A value too low may
add spaces where they do not belong.
Accepted values range from 0 to 0.5. The default value is 0.3, recommended values are between 0.25 and 0.40.
Logging User Options
Logging user options control the level of detail added to the PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools log file. Since log files cover 24
hours of operation, choosing to log every task performed by PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools may result in the creation of
excessively large files.
Changing the logging options also affects the logs displayed in the PlanetPress Suite Service Console .
The available Logging user options are as follows:
l Log level group
l Startup and shutdown: Select to only track when the PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools service is started
and stopped.
l Task success and failure: Select to only track when tasks in the processes running in a PlanetPress Suite
Workflow Tools configuration succeed and fail.
l Task success and failure with details: Select to track when the tasks in processes running in PlanetPress
Suite Workflow Tools succeed and fail, with details. Details can include why tasks fail and how successful tasks
are executed.
l All events with details: Select to log everything that happens in PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools. This
includes when it starts and stops, the success and failure of tasks, and details on the success and failure of
tasks.
l Delete log files after: Select how many days log files are kept before being deleted.
Messenger User Options
Apart from enabling communication between the various parts of PlanetPress Suite, the PlanetPress Suite Messenger also man-
ages local instances of the PlanetPress Suite Alambic.
The available Messenger user options are as follows:
l PlanetPress Alambic options group
l Let me set up how many instances to run: Select this option if you want to limit the number of instances
of the Alambic that PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools can run. Then enter the number of instances, a value rang-
ing from 1 to 32, in the box below. When this option is not selected, PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools starts a
minimum of three instances and a maximum of eight, based on the number of CPUs available on the server.
Note that this does affects self-replicating processes. Self-replicating processes will create threads in the Plan-
etPress Workflow service, while Alambic threads are under the PlanetPress Messenger service.
