How to Use Patchcode Sheets

This section describes how to use patchcode sheets with CapturePerfect 3.0.

1.Print the patchcode sheets on a printer.

IMPORTANT

Print (at original size) PATCH T (A4) and PATCH II (A4) sheets on A4 paper, or PATCH T (LTR) and PATCH II (LTR) on LTR paper.

The scanner may not recognize the patchcodes if they are enlarged or reduced.

2.Insert the patchcode sheet in front of the document that you want to save as a separate file before placing the documents on the scanner.

Insert patchcode sheets in front of the documents you want to save as separate files.

3.On the [Other Settings] dialog box of the ISIS driver properties, select [Patchcode] from the Batch Separation drop-down list.

4.Perform scanning with batch separation enabled.

5.Set the [Type of batch separation] setting to [Scan, Continue Scanning] or [Skip, Continue Scanning].

Hint

If [Scan, Continue Scanning] is selected or if the patchcode is PATCH ll type, the patchcode sheet image is also saved and scanning continues.

If [Skip, Continue Scanning] is selected and the PATCH T pattern is detected, the patchcode sheet image is not saved and scanning continues.

Creating a Patchcode Sheet

To copy a patchcode pattern to create a different size patchcode sheet, make sure to pay attention to the following precautions:

IMPORTANT

Adjust the patchcode so that it fits into the effective area for detecting patchcode patterns.

When copying a patchcode pattern, the copy should be the same size as the pattern on the original.

Be careful to keep patchcode sheets clean. If a patchcode sheet has been folded or becomes creased, reprint or replace the sheet.
