SOAPWorkflow
As SOAPcan be either a client or a server, two workflows will be presented. The SOAPClient
workflow presents PlanetPress Workflow as the client and will explore how to retrieve
WSDLinformation and how to make a SOAPrequest as a client. The SOAPServer workflow
will show how to create a process that responds to SOAPrequests, and where our own
WSDLis located.
PlanetPress Capture Workflow
PlanetPress Capture, introduced in PlanetPress 7.2 and enhanced ever since, is a set of tools
that is used to simplify digital archiving processes by capturing information from a special pen
which records everything it writes on paper, as long as this paper contains special Anoto
Patterns.
Warning
There are important considerations to keep in mind when dealing with PlanetPress
Capture. Please review them in "PlanetPress Capture Implementation Restrictions" on
page160.
In order to properly build a PlanetPress Capture workflow, it is very important to understand the
terminology, implications and limitations of the technology. This is the first part of this section:
l "Capture Information" on page146
l "Database Considerations (ODBC)" on page149
l "Security Considerations" on page151
l "20,000 Patterns" on page153
l "PlanetPress Capture Implementation Restrictions" on page160
There are also 2 external tools that are used to communicate the pen's data to PlanetPress
Workflow:
l "Anoto penDirector" on page158
l "PlanetPress Mobile Application" on page160
