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.
