ICR (Intelligent Character Recognition)
Recognizing text that has been hand-written with the Anoto Digital Pen. This feature is currently
not implemented in PlanetPress Capture, but will be in the (near) future.
Ink Data
The pen stroke information contained within the PGC file. This is the actual data applied to the
document (lines, signatures, text, etc).
Open Document
A document in the Capture Database that does not yet have any ink data on it, or of which not
all mandatory fields (or final field) have ink present on them. Such a document is waiting for a
new PGC file to complete it so it can be closed.
Pattern ID
The ID of the Anoto pattern. Represents the pattern on the page. Can be used to retrace the
document to which the pattern belong.
Pattern Sequence
Pattern Sequences enable the multiplication of the number of available pattern by adding an
extra identification to the document. A Pattern Sequence is also attributed to each Anoto Digital
Pen, such as an incoming PGC file will contain the Pattern, on which the Pattern Sequence is
added from the pen database. The pattern and pattern sequence refer to a specific document in
the database. Signing a document with a pen of which the Pattern Sequence does not match
that of the document causes Contamination, which can cause errors or ink to be placed on the
wrong document.
Pen ID
The serial number of the Anoto Digital Pen. It is registered in the PlanetPress Capture
database and is present in each PGC file.
PGC File
Pen Generated Coordinates; PGC File containing all ink processed while the pen was
undocked along with the Pen ID. It is possible that a single document requires multiple PGC,
just as it is possible that a single PGC have multiple documents.
