Use a conversion table for special characters

If you have a need for using special characters in the codes for cover pages, you must define a conversion file containing a conversion table. You can find an example of a conversion file in

SJSKANROOT\skillebladskoder.txt

Codes for cover pages

The codes for cover pages can be interpreted using the conversion table in the conversion file. The conversion table is used, when you want to use a character in a code for a cover page and this character is not a part of the used bar code font. It can be characters such as | ^ (.

If you have a very long text, which cannot be held in one line, the conversion table can be used for making “abbreviations.”

About The conversion table

A conversion table in WorkZone Content Server Imaging is a text file, which, for example, contains the following:

.1X;(2X;)..3X;|.4X;&.5X;(ALLEEMNER&648652)|(POST&0)

When converting the code for a cover page using a conversion table, the text on the left side of the semicolon in the conversion table is substituted by the text on the right side.

Using the conversion table above, the code IBK.5X will be translated to the expression: IBK(ALLEEMNER&648652)|(POST&0).

The path to the file that contains the conversion table must be specified in the Cover Page Settings window.

Configure the path to the conversion table

Before you can configure the path to the conversion table, you must get access to editing CFG files.

  1. In the InfoScan Setup window, click in the toolbar. The Capture Setup window opens.
  2. Select the Separate Documents with Cover pages check box and click Settings next to the check box. The Coverpage Settings window opens.
  3. In the Path To Conversion File field, enter the path to the file containing the conversion table, and click OK.
  4. Click OK to close the Capture Setup window.
