Overview
The FTP Export Migration allows users to migrate content from PSIcapture to an FTP server with a wide variety of configuration options. Below is a breakdown of configuration options available in this migration, and how to link those elements to your FTP export configuration.
FTP Export General Options
FTP Connection Options
FTP address
Specify the FTP external web address or local IPv4 / IPv6 address as applicable to your FTP server configuration.
Use encrypted connections (FTP Server must support SSL) - Enable this feature to use SSL (Secure Socket Layering) to connect to your FTP server.
User name
Specify the User name with credentials to read, write and modify files within the FTP server.
Domain
Specify the Domain hosting the FTP server.
Password
Specify the password for the above user name.
Connection type
Specify an Active or Passive connection.
Test Connection
Test the connection configuration to ensure you can establish a working connection to the FTP server.
Image File Options
Migrate Image Files
Select Migrate Image Files to output the tiff files.
Image Source
Select the Image Source:
- Main Image – Image you see within the capture viewer
- Original Image – Only available if option on step 2 of 9 is selected (this image is not modified by Image Processing)
- Alternate Images – Alternate images can be created at various times during the workflow (IE Image Processing: Crop)
Storage Location
Select Storage Location by choosing a pre-defined location or configuring a new one.
Image Output Type
Select the Image Output Type: Multi-Page Tiff Image, Single Page Tiff Images, Single Page JPEG Images, Single Page BMP Images, Single Page GIF Images, Single Page PNG Images, Multi-Page PDF (Image Only), or Single Page PDFs (Image Only).
JPEG Quality
The default is 75 and is a good blend between quality and size. Raising the number will increase size and may increase the quality of the file. This setting affects Color, Grayscale and JPEG files only.
Tags to Output
When Alternate Images are selected as the Image Source, user can specify the image tag here. Only alternate images with the matching tag will be outputted.
NOTE: Separate multiple tags using commas.
Alt. Page Behavior
Select Alt. Page Behavior: One Document with all tags, or One Document with each tag.
OCR and Extended File Format File Options
Migrate OCR Files
Select Migrate OCR Files to output the OCR files. This is for a files created in the OCR module.
Storage Location
Select Storage Location by choosing a pre-defined location or configuring a new one.
OCR Files to Migrate
Select OCR Files To Migrate: All OCR Files for Document, Single OCR File by workflow position, or OCR Files by file tags.
OCR File Tags to Output
Select OCR File Tags to Output: When OCR Files by file tags are selected, only files with matching image tags will be outputted. NOTE: Separate multiple tags using commas.
Advanced Migration Settings
Shared File Options
File Directory Structure
Select the desired directory structure from the following options:
- All Files in Storage Location
- All Files in Storage Location\Batch Folder
- Output File in Storage Location; Document files in Storage Location\Batch Folder
- Output File in Storage Location; Document files in Storage Location\Batch Folder\Capture Folder
Duplicate Image/OCR File Behavior
When the program detects that it is about to create a duplicate Image/OCR file the user can select from the following behavior options:
- Increment duplicate names (e.g.: 000001.tif, 000001_1.tif, 000001_2.tif)
- Overwrite existing file
- Use existing file
- Stop Migrating
Single Page Output Options
Storage Option
Select storage options that best suit your business needs.
Naming Option
Select format by which the files are named.
Trigger File Options
Create Trigger File
Creates a trigger file for use as a separation trigger or otherwise useable trigger file.
Trigger File Naming
Choose from Batch Date, Batch Number, or Batch Create Date, or Fixed Name as suits your business needs.
Trigger Fixed File Name
Specify the Fixed File Name if you chose the "Fixed Name" option above.
Trigger File Extension
Specify the Extension of the trigger file.
External Application Options
The user may wish to execute another windows application as a part of this migration. In order to accomplish this, the user must configure the following:
Application to Launch
Select the windows executable to launch.
Application Arguments
Supply any command line arguments, if any. These are supplied by the executable’ developer.
Launch Timing
The user can choose between the following timing options to launch the executable:
- Launch application after each Batch is migrated
- Launch application after all selected Batches are migrated
Wait for Application to Complete - PSIcapture will wait for the application to complete its process before continuing the workflow.
- Maximum Time (in Minutes) - This specifies how long PSIcapture will wait for the given process above to complete before proceeding with the workflow.
Custom File Naming
File naming tabs have a universal interface. The example shown here is the Custom File Naming tab. It supports the use of system and index data to name the files that are being migrated to the FTP Server. For example, the Client, Platform, Batch_Number, and Load_Date as index fields could be concatenated to create a naming pattern for the migrated files.
These settings apply to custom files migrated.
File Extension is available with the Text migration settings. Users can add a custom file name.
Single Page File Naming
File naming tabs have a universal interface. The example shown here is the Single Page File Naming tab. It supports the use of system and index data to name the files that are being migrated to the FTP server. For example, the Client, Platform, Batch_Number, and Load_Date as index fields could be concatenated to create a naming pattern for the migrated files.
These settings apply to single page custom files migrated.
File Extension is available with the Text migration settings. Users can add a custom file name.
Folder Design
The folder design tab supports the use of system and index data in naming of the folders that are being migrated to the target system.
Folder Design should be constructed initially by the FTP Server Administrator, and then that same design can be customized here to match your FTP Server organization scheme.
NOTE: If a folder of the same value already exists nothing is done.
Pre-Processing
Bates Stamping Options
Bates Stamping is a legal industry standard for organizing and numbering multi-page legal documents. PSIcapture provides two methodologies for applying Bates Stamping: Capture Bates Stamping and Migration Bates Stamping. Capture based stamping applies Bates Stamps during the initial capture phase of a workflow. Migration based stamping applies Bates Stamps in the Migration phase of a workflow, which is typically the final phase.
See PSIcapture Administrator Guide: Bates Stamping
Imaging Processing Options
Select Enable Image Processing and then specify the image processing functions to run.
NOTE: The Enable Image Processing affects ONLY images files and not OCR. This feature is intended to be used when the desired images being migrated need a particular function run on them like Despeckle when the user has scanned in color and wishes a second output stream of Black and White images.
See PSIcapture Administrator Guide: Image Processing
Image Tag Output
See PSIcapture Administrator Guide: Image Tag Output
Output Options
Remove specified page from Migration Output: Page to remove from Output
A specified page from each document will be omitted from the output. NOTE: The Remove Page from Output affects ONLY images files and not OCR. This feature is intended to be used when the desired page to be removed is NOT a Folder or Document Separator. OCR is handled in the OCR Workflow Configuration section of this manual.
Remove last page from Migration Output
The last page from each document will be omitted from the output.
Include Folder Separators in Output
If data is included on the Folder Separator which is important to the user during Quality Assurance or Index but is NOT desired to be left in the output viewed by the end user; de-selecting this option will remove the Folder Separator sheet before outputting the file.
Include Document Separators in Output
If data is included on the Document Separator which is important to the user during Quality Assurance or Index but is NOT desired to be left in the output viewed by the end user; de-selecting this option will remove the Document Separator sheet before outputting the file.
Do not output items marked with Skip flag
Items marked with the Skip flag will be omitted from the output.
NOTE: The Keep/Remove Separators defined in migrations affects ONLY images files and not OCR. OCR is handled in the OCR Workflow Configuration section of this manual.
