Card Stock with a Card Setup that has a Dynamic OCV Element 
This procedure can be performed at a Simulator.
A Dynamic OCV is defined on the Card Stock, and 
the parameters can be 
modified via data, so that you don’t have to define multiple card stock setups. 
Dynamic OCV only works if the field being checked is in the same place on each 
card.

rom the menu bar select Applications | Setups | Card Setup.

n the toolbar click Open and then, from the Open dialog box, select an 
appropriate Card Setup and click Open.

n the Card Properties Settings tab, for the Stock Name, select the Card Stock 
Setup that has front and back background images defined for it.
4. (Recommended) Enlarge t
he image by selecting a Zoom setting.

lick the Dynamic OCV Element icon in the toolbar at the right of the screen, 
and then click in the card near were the variable text is printed. A box and 
cross-hair appear where you clicked.

The box you define is the search region, that is, the area that will be
