Publishing a Scan Profile

In a Kofax Express client/server installation, an administrator can share scan profiles created on any workstation and make them available to other users. This is accomplished by publishing the scan profiles to send them to the central repository that is accessible to other Kofax Express workstations. The most current published scan profiles are also downloaded automatically when a user selects a scanner for use with Kofax Express. Scan profiles are downloaded only if they apply to the scanner being used on the user's workstation.

Shared scan profiles are listed with <S> next to their names. Once a shared scan profile is edited and saved, the <S> designation is removed from its name. When a scan profile is published, any existing shared profile with the same name on the server is overwritten.

  1. On the Scan Profile toolbar, select the name of the profile to publish.
  2. On the Scan Profile toolbar, click Publish.

    On the Scan Profile list, <S> appears next to the name of the published scan profile.

Publishing Multiple Scan Profiles

Use the procedure in this section to publish multiple scan profiles at the same time.

  1. Click the Kofax Button to open the Kofax Express menu.
  2. On the Kofax Express menu, point to Publish and click Publish Scan Profiles.

    The Publish Scan Profiles window appears.

  3. In the Publish Scan Profiles window, click the name of each scan profile you want to publish and click Publish.

    On the Scan Profile list, <S> appears next to the name of each scan profile that you selected to publish, and a confirmation appears on the status bar.

    The published scan profiles are available immediately to users at other workstations.
