In this document, you will learn how to configure and perform advanced barcode extraction in Ephesoft Transact.<\/p>\n
Advanced barcode extraction is useful when:<\/p>\n
This section outlines the prerequisites required to perform advanced barcode extraction.<\/p>\n
Note:\u00a0<\/strong>To use the Recostar barcode method, the RECOSTAR_HOCR plugin must be added to the workflow.<\/p>\n For more information on managing plugins, refer to Module and Plugin Configuration<\/a>.<\/p>\n The advanced barcode plugins use the advanced barcode engine, which allows you to have more control over the classification and extraction results in certain scenarios. Use of the advanced barcode plugins over the standard barcode plugins is recommended if your documents have multiple barcodes on a single page.<\/p>\n This section provides information on how to configure the ADVANCED_BARCODE_EXTRACTION plugin. This plugin only needs to be configured once per batch class.<\/p>\n To navigate to the plugin:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Figure 3. Extraction Plugin Configuration<\/em><\/p>\n Ephesoft Transact will filter out barcode results that have a confidence value less than this specified threshold.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Windows<\/strong><\/p>\n Linux<\/strong><\/p>\n Ephesoft Transact will attempt extraction with the first priority engine and proceed down the list until extraction is successful. Once a barcode is extracted, other engines with lower priorities are ignored.<\/p>\n Note<\/strong>: You can delete a barcode engine by right-clicking the name and selecting Delete<\/strong>.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Note<\/strong>: Performance and accuracy will increase if a smaller region is specified.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/a>Overview<\/h2>\n
