Creating a Capture-Ready document
This is done when creating your PlanetPress Design document. Adding one or more
PlanetPress Capture fields to a PlanetPress Design document creates a capture-ready
document, which can be used in the workflow. For more information, see the PlanetPress
Design User Guide.
Generating the Capture Patterns
Once your document is created, the Capture Fields Generator action task is used to apply the
capture patterns to each of your documents and send them to the printer. This printing process
will consist of:
l Retrieving your data file.
l Creating metadata (See "Create Metadata" on page559).
l Separating each individual document in the metadata (this can be done in your Design
document or through the "Metadata Level Creation" on page568 action task).
l Using the "Capture Fields Generator" on page542 action task to generate the capture
patterns
l Printing your documents.
Capturing and Archiving
After the printed documents have been inked with the Anoto Digital Pen, the PGC files from the
pen must be processed and merged with the appropriate documents in the PlanetPress
Capture Database. A workflow process that receives PGC files and reads them in turn consists
of the following actions:
