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 OKbutton, 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, thenonly 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 valuesare 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.).
l
BarcodeValue: Metadata field representing the value of the barcode. When multiple
barcodes are present on the page, this field is present multiple times.
l
BarcodeCount:: Metadata field representing the number of barcodes on the page.
l
Barcode_1_Value: Metadata field representing the value of the first barcode on the
page.Note that thisfield (Barcode_1_Value) contains the same value as the first
occurrence of BarcodeValue.
