Select a category from the Content list. In the Details field, the description of one of the data types
(chosen by default, or specified manually earlier) that belong to the category will be displayed.
If the Process value as text option is selected, the values of fields with any content will be processed and
exported as text. The field format check will not be carried out either.
To change the recognition Language or specify a more restricted data type, click the Edit… button
located to the right of the description.
For standard (or general) types (General is selected in Content settings list), you can do the following:
· For Text – select several recognition languages (the “…” button). You can use the built-in
dictionary and/or custom dictionary. Information in the dictionaries will be taken into
consideration during field recognition then.
· For Number – select Integer if the value is expected to be an integer number;
· For Date – select the date component order, choose (not) to show months in words, choose (not)
to show time and day of week;
· For Address, Name, Code – use a custom dictionary.
Special types (select Special in the Content settings list) contain predefined data types you can choose the
most suitable from. Mind the description on the bottom of the dialog box when making a selection.
You can create your own data type if none in the list suits your needs.
1. To create a new data type, select one of the values in the Contents list on the Data Type tab. You
can select any value in list that would correspond to the purpose of your type. The resulting data
type will be stored in the selected category, although the category itself doesn’t influence the new
type.
2. Click the Edit… button located to the right of the Details field. In the dialog box that opens, select
Special in the Content settings list. Click New….
3. Follow the New Data Type Wizard’s instructions.
