Creating a Batch from File Selection
You can create a batch from a file (e.g., pdf, gif, jpg, etc.) or group of file from the File Selection window in AppXtender Image Capture.
Follow these directions to create a batch by file selection:
- If necessary, click the Auto Feed button on the toolbar.
- Click Batch on the menu bar and Create from the list.
- The Select Files for Batch Import window is displayed. Type a batch name in the Batch Name field.
Note: The batch name is case sensitive; therefore, we recommend typing it in all caps. Batch naming conventions depend on the standards set by your department/division. See your manager for more information. You can enter the name of an existing batch to add pages to that batch; however, you cannot enter the name of a batch that is currently being indexed in AppXtender because it will cause the batch creation to fail. - Click the Files of type pull-down arrow and select All Files (*.) from the list.
- Press and hold the [CTRL] key on the keyboard and from the file list, click the files you want to import.
Note: To select two or contiguous (in sequence), select the first file, then press and hold the [SHIFT] key on the keyboard while selecting the last file. When importing files into a batch, text files that are flagged as hidden or system are not imported. - Click the Open button.
Note: A progress message is displayed. If necessary, click the Cancel button at any time to cancel the batch import. - When the import is complete, a Batch Import Status window is displayed.
Note: If any of the files were rejected, click the View Reject Log button to see the reasons for the rejection. - Click the Exit button.
- When you are finished, close AppXtender Image Capture.
