Conclusion
l PlanetPress Workflow can only generate 20,000 unique patterns
l One pattern is used (locked) for each page containing a pattern.
l Processing the ink data from a pen and closing the document releases the pattern
l Most implementations will not need more than 20,000 patterns
l When necessary, patterns can be extended using multiple servers or Pattern Sequences
(as long as these are used in separate physical locations).
l It is extremely critical that contamination be avoided at all costs.
l Whenever possible, always avoid using pattern sequences unless it is absolutely
necessary to do so.
Anoto penDirector
The Anoto penDirector is a software driver provided as a download by Objectif Lune Inc. The
penDirector creates a bridge between the Anoto Digital Pen and a PlanetPress Capture
workflow in PlanetPress Workflow.
In order to use penDirector, it needs to be downloaded from the Objectif Lune website, on this
page. This software must be installed after PlanetPress Workflow. The setup will install a pre-
configured version of penDirector which can be immediately used with PlanetPress Capture.
The communication between penDirector and PlanetPress Workflow is either through a folder
transfer or HTTPPost communication.
To configure this communication:
1. Open penDirector setup by right-clicking on its icon in the Windows System Tray, and
selecting penDispatcher.
2. Double-click on the PlanetPress Capture entry.
3. Change the PGCStorage folder or PGCPOST URLsettings to your liking.
4. Click OK, then OKagain.
The PGCPOSTURLshould correspond to your server name or IP, Port and the HTTPAction
task of your HTTPInput, if that is what you are using.
Example:http://127.0.0.1:8080/ProcessPGC
