2. Improvements/Features/Changes add chapter
2.1 OCR Profils (Tesseract) add section
(from V6.8.27) OCR attributes which were set for a job can be saved as an OCR profile. The OCR Profiles can then be selected from a dropdown list and used in other jobs or connected to a workflow.
An OCR profile modifies the OCR attributes of the job it is selected in; it does not change the global OCR attributes.
It is also possible to export or import Profiles and therefore use them at further BCS-2 stations.
The toolbar element “OCR profile selector” has to be added to individually created toolbars so that the drop downlist can be used. RM#4306
2.2 Splitting – right page first add section
(from V6.8.27) It is possible to define for each workflow which side (left or right) of a page is to be inserted first into a job after splitting. The setting “Behavior during splitting Right pages first”
can be activated in the workflow tab “Basic” in the section “Navigation and Presentation”. RM#4524
Workflows – Basic Settings – IWC-Manuals
2.3 Pagination Settings in the Job menu add section
(from V6.8.27)The pagination settings for the Job Structure Indexes (Indexing in the structure tree) can be selected via the Job menu. The settings will be applied to the currently selected and all following images. RM#4602
2.4 New Transactionscodes add section
(from V6.8.27) Following new transaction codes are available:
- Operations after the scan
- Operations after the scan: Toggle black border remove after scan -> 0252
- For ImageAccess scanners
- Dynamic brightness: Apply dynamic brightness correction to the image -> 0266
- Dynamic brightness: Apply dynamic brightness correction to the image -> 0267
Transaction Codes – IWC-Manuals
2.5 New Toolbar Icons add section
(from V6.8.27) Following new Toolbar Icons can be added to individually configured Toolbars RM#4529
- Resolution:
- 500 dpi
- 900 dpi
- Image postprocessing
- Dewarp
- Viewer
- Toggle Viewer Grid
- OCR-Profile
2.6 Import/Export Scanprofiles add section
The scanprofiles are included when BCS-2 settings are exported, so that they do not have to be recreated after a new installation of BCS-2. Prerequisite for the usage is the connection to the same scanner with which the profiles were created. (RM#4382),
2.7 Save user name with the job add section
In the basic tab of each workflow, it is possible to activate/deactivate, if information to the logged-in windows user (ut.userName()) is stored in the jobs. When the function “Save user name: if active, save username in job structure:” is active following information is stored in each job:
- Username of the person that created the job
- Username of the person that last changed the job
The data can be used to
- Filter the job list and only show the jobs of the logged in user
- Show the username in the job list
- Output the information via the ReportSuite
The function is deactivated by default. (RM#4284)
2.8 Filter job list for logged in user add section
When the workflow function “Save user name: if active, save username in job structure:” is activated, a filter for the jobs in the job list can be used.
Through the activation of “filter jobs based on users” in the basic tab of the settings only the users own jobs are displayed on the list. (RM#4287)
2.9 Save Scan Profile of the job add section
When working with scan profiles, the last scan profile that is used in a job is saved in the job information when the job is closed.
If the job is reopened BCS-2 checks if a scan profile was saved for the job and selects it. If the scan profile was deleted the user is notified. Scan Profiles can also be displayed in the job list. . (RM#3821)
2.10 Display scan profile in the job list add section
The last used scanprofile can be view in the job list. The additional column can be defined in the settings tag “job list“. The variable is called job.scanProfile and can be selected via the “select variables”. (RM#3820).
2.11 Only load camera SDK when camera is used add section
The loading of the camera SDK can be activated/deactivated in the General Settings/Scanner Settings – Scanner Selection “Activate loading camera SDK” . The function must be active if cameras are to be used. The function is deactivated by default. (RM#4402)
2.12 Job List – Unload BCS-2 job via the job list add section
The function “unload job into file” can be used via the job list for one or multiple jobs. ( RM#4401)
2.13 Transfer Target – Unload BCS-2 job add section
The unloading of a BCS-2 job can now also be done via a transfer target. A new transfer target type “Unload JobFolder” was implemented. The corresponding job with all job data (scans, indexes, metadata, masks) is copied to a file. The job can be imported in the same or another BCS-2 station. (RM#4191)
2.14 SONY ILX-LR1 add section
The connection to the industrial camera SONY ILX-LR1 via the SONY SDK was implemented, so that the camera can be used like the CANON EOS cameras to scan with BCS-2. (RM#4165).
2.15 Connection to Microsoft OneDrive add section
Microsoft OneDrive can now be used fby BCS-2 as a local drive. OneDrive can be selected during the installation or subsequently for the Data directory/ Scandata. The usage of one drive as a transfer target ist also supported. (RM#4256)
2.16 Connection Zeutschel OS15000 add section
The Zeutschel OS15000 can be operated by BCS-2 via the 64-Bit TWAIN driver. For easier operation the control of the glass plate by BCS-2 was implemented.
2.17 Integration CANON EDSK V13:18 add section
Through the integration of the CANON EDSK V13.18 newer Canon models such as EOS R5 are now supported by BCS-2 in addition to models such as EOS 5DS, EOS 5DS R, EOS 760D, EOS 750D und EOS M3.
2.18 Modification of the transfer type eL- export Replacement of the IWCOCR format through the ALTO format add section
V3.8 of the MyBib eL (electronic reading room) can use ALTO files. The necessity to create “IWC-OCR files” is no longer given. For this reason, the eL export format in BCS-2 was changed so that BCS-2 automatically transfers Alto files into the eL Zip file, which can then be transferred to the reading room and checked in. (RM#4379).
2.19 Unload BCS-2 jobs – Unload jobs into file add section
The function “Unload Job in file“, which can be found in the tab “Job” was modified. The corresponding job including all job Metadata (scans, indexes,etc.) are no longer placed into a zip file, but are copied to a file. The unloaded job can later be loaded into the same or a different BCS-2 containing the workflow of the job. The filename consists of the job number, date and time (RM#4398, RM#4399)
2.20 Import BCS-2 job add section
The jobs which were unload into files can be imported. (RM#4400 )
