PGCFile
Pen Generated Coordinates; PGC File containing all ink processed while the pen was
undocked along with the Pen ID. It is possible that a single document requires multiple PGC,
just as it is possible that a single PGC have multiple documents.
Pidget
Type of PlanetPress Capture object. Page element used to give instructions to the Anoto pen,
as opposed to recording ink.
PlanetPress Capture Database
A database containing the list of patterns, sequences, registered pens and documents. The
Capture Database can be used by a single server, or by multiple servers in a Client/Server
architecture.
Session
The time spent by the pen between events that trigger a new session. Generally a session
refers to any ink in a single page containing a Capture Pattern. Asession can contain ink from
multiple fields in any order. A new session starts whenever a PGCis sent for processing (which
erases the data from the pen).
General Considerations
Here are some general considerations in regards to PlanetPress Capture, its environment, the
hardware and the software that interacts with it. Please review these considerations carefully as
they may impact PlanetPress Capture and its functionality.
Warning
PlanetPress Capture Fields cannot simply be inserted into an existing document as-is
and expected to work properly, efficiently or consistently. In order to design a document
with Capture Fields, you must review and understand the Critical PlanetPress Capture
Implementation Restrictions.
