Document Capture
Capturing documents is the method by which images are placed into the system. halFILE provides several methods for capturing documents including (1) scanning pages using a digital scanner, (2) importing compatible image files from disk, (3) capturing printed output from another application, and (4) sending Office Documents to halFILE.
Scanning
Scanning is performed using the menu selection FILE-SCAN or selecting the scan icon. Scanned pages are placed into the basket that selected at the top right side of the halFILE Manager. After a batch of pages is scanned, they can be "stapled" into documents.
The first time you select this menu you will be asked:
select scanner interface for this station 1=Kofax, 2=Twain, 3=Twain/Pro
You should select the interface that is set up and working for the station. Kofax (see Kofax Scanning) should be selected when you are using a Kofax Adrenaline scanner interface card (Adrenaline or KF-Series) or the Kofax Adrenaline Image Processing Software Engine (AIPE). TWAIN scanning (see TWAIN Scanning) should be selected if the TWAIN interface to the scanner is in use. Select Twain/Pro when using Imaging Professional 2.7 or later. Select Twain if you are using a TWAIN scanner with Imaging Standard or Imaging 2.6 or earlier.
