4. The Import Profile Creation Wizard now prompts you to set up options for purging the Hot

Folder following import. Images that were successfully imported and images whose processing

produced an error can be deleted or moved to another folder.

5. Finally, change the name assigned by default to the import profile and enter a description.

Figure 23. The Image Import Profiles dialog box

1. Set up an import profile for your images. To do so, select Project > Image Import Profiles in the ABBYY

FlexiCapture 8.0 Professional main window.

2. In the Image Import Profiles dialog box, click New… to create a new profile. Enter the profile name and

select the Scanner option (the questionnaire images will be received from the scanner).

3. Set up scanning and image processing options.

4. On the last step of the wizard work you can change the default name assigned to the import profile and

provide a description.

5. Setting Up the System for Processing Flexible

Documents

Setting up the processing of flexible documents is a more difficult task. Since the location, size, and

number of data fields vary between different documents, you cannot create a template with fixed

arrangement of fields for invoices, payment orders, and other similar documents. Therefore a fixed

template cannot be successfully matched to all copies of such documents. On such documents, data

fields are searched for after the page is recognized as a whole, and the template is created on the basis of

keywords and mutual arrangement of data fields. A special component of the system, ABBYY

FlexiLayout Studio 8.0, is specifically designed for creating such templates. For a detailed guide on

creating a flexible template, please see the ABBYY FlexiLayout Studio 8.0 Help file.

A created flexible template is exported to an AFL file and then attached to ABBYY FlexiCapture 8.0

Professional. We can use a flexible description for the entire template or as one of the sections. A

flexible description can be multi-page.
