Adding Sample Pages

You can import or scan sample pages to associate with form types.

Importing Sample Pages

To import a sample page, image files must already exist on disk for your form type. You can use any image file scanned from a form and saved to disk.

  1. On the Scan panel, in the Scan Source list, select an import source.
  2. On the Document class tree view tab, select the form type for which you want to add a sample page.
  3. On the Home tab, in the Form Type group, click Add Sample Pages.

    The Import files window appears.

  4. On the Import files window, select a file and click Open.

    The sample page is associated with the form type and displayed in the Administration module view window.

The bottom section of the Import window contains a list box for Files to import. You can select the files to import and then click the Add button. The files you select are added to the list of Files to import. You can use the pointer to reorder the list. Then, click Open to import the files. The files are imported in the order listed. This is useful if you want to import files from different folders, or import the files in a particular order.

Scanning Sample Pages

  • Scanner attached to your workstation.

  • Source device defined for the scanner. You define source devices with the Scanner Configuration Utility.

  5. From the Document class tree view tab, select the form type for which you want to add a sample page.
  6. On the Home tab, in the Form Type group, click Add Sample Pages.
