Common Errors
Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks
because they are related more to the system than to PlanetPress itself. Some examples would be W3813,
W3830, W3991, W4005. These correspond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission
errors on folders or files, etc.
Comments Tab
The Comments tab 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 OKbutton,
and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Metadata Implementation
The Barcode Scan task reads each scanned file and outputs the values read from barcode(s) on the page
(s) into metadata depending of the selected Process by option:
l If the selected option is process by page, then the metadata file is created and overwritten for each
new scanned page.
l If the selected option is process by file, thenonly one metadata file will be created(or updated).
Note
If metadata was created previously in the process, the task only adds new fields to the existing metadata at the
datapage level.
Metadata Fields
The barcode valuesare stored at the datapage level of the metadata. In the following defintions, the first 2
metadata fields are for standard use,while the next 8 fields contain '_1_' in their name. This number
represents the barcode index on the page. If there is more than one barcode on the same page, these
metadata fields will be defined as many times as there are barcodes on the page, except that the middle
number (..._X_...) will increment according to the barcode index (e.g. Barcode_2_Value, Barcode_3_Value,
etc.).
