Get Capture Document
The Get Capture Document action task is used after the Capture Fields Processor to
retrieve all documents that have been updated.
Input
A data file in PGCor PDFformat that is accompanied by valid Metadata. This metadata must
contain Capture information and is generally available after a "Capture Fields Processor" on
page471 or "Find Capture Documents" on page482 task. However, it is also possible to
directly retrieve the required information from a specific Document ID. When a specific ID is
used, the data file and metadata are completely ignored by this task's condition rules, and the
database information is used instead.
Processing
One PDF, corresponding to the information present either in the metadata or specified in the
task, is extracted from the Capture database.
When retrieving documents from the database, the PDFfrom which the document is obtained
will remain in the database until each document contained in it is retrieved from it. For example,
if a 10-page PDFcontains 5 documents, the 10 pages remain in that PDFuntil all 5 documents
have received ink, been closed and retrieved from the database. This may mean space issues
if too many PDFfiles remain in your database.
Technical
Performance-wise, when this plugin retrieves a document from a 10,000 page PDF in the
database, it will take more time then if it retrieved it from a 100 page PDF.
Output
The Get Capture Document action task is a loop that outputs a PDFversion of the Capture
Document. The PDFcontains the original document, any ink added by the "Capture Fields
Processor" on page471 action task.
