The IPro Tech Software Archive
Hello and welcome to The IPro Tech Software Archive. I created this blog to simplify things for myself and for anyone else who is looking for help on IPro. I ever have questions or need answers for a certain task, this is a lot easier for me to search than calling Tech Support or Navigating their Archive.
Archived Items here can be found on their archive and I do not take ANY credit for these Tips that they provide free on their website.
Although I do take credit for the ones I post ;)

Querying a Project for a Tag/Issue
You can query the project that generates a list of image keys tagged with a specific tag/issue. You can save the query for export to third-party databases. The query saves in ASCII format for easy cross-platform compatibility. The query results can be printed. The boundary resolution option enables you to find the location of an image key within a higher boundary.
1. Choose Search > Issue Tags from the menu bar. The Issue/Tag Collection dialog box appears as shown in Figure 6-1.
2. Select a Tag.
3. Click OK. The query Results dialog box appears, as shown in Figure 6-2, with the selected issue in the title bar and a list of the image keys with that issue.
4. Click the Resolution drop-down list box and select a boundary level. The list of image keys changes according to the selected boundary.
For example if you selected document, the image key list will show the first image key for each document boundary that contains an image or images that were returned from the query.
Most IPROView Premium projects have several boundary levels. The most common boundary levels are folder and document. The results of a tag/issue, sticky notes or embedded text query default to the boundary indicated at Project Setup. To find the location of an image key within a higher boundary, you must move up through the boundary hierarchy to a higher level. This is called resolving the boundaries.
5. Click Prev Set or Next Set to view the previous set or next set of image keys. These buttons are not available when the window is docked. In addition, these buttons may be dimmed gray depending on the dynamic scroll value set in the Navigation Options dialog box.
6. Click the Previous Page or Next Page icons to view the next image key or the previous image key in IPROView Premium.
7. Click on the Quick Scroll icon. The Quick Scroll dialog box appears and the images appear one after the other in the IPROView Premium main window until you click Cancel in the Quick Scroll Dialog box.
1. Choose Search > Issue Tags from the menu bar. The Issue/Tag Collection dialog box appears as shown in Figure 6-1.
2. Select a Tag.
3. Click OK. The query Results dialog box appears, as shown in Figure 6-2, with the selected issue in the title bar and a list of the image keys with that issue.
4. Click the Resolution drop-down list box and select a boundary level. The list of image keys changes according to the selected boundary.
For example if you selected document, the image key list will show the first image key for each document boundary that contains an image or images that were returned from the query.

How to Create a Change Key LFP
Within the IPRO Viewing system, it is possible to modify an image key while retaining all the issues and annotations associated with it. This would be accomplished by creating a Change Key LFP file. For each modified image key, a corresponding comma-delimited record must be generated in the following format.
CK,ABC-0001,DEF-0001
• CK is the identifier that tells the system this is an import process to change the image keys.
• ABC-0001 is the old image key.
• DEF-0001 is the new image key.
CK,ABC-0001,DEF-0001
• CK is the identifier that tells the system this is an import process to change the image keys.
• ABC-0001 is the old image key.
• DEF-0001 is the new image key.
IPro Print - Automatic turn on of AutoPoll
When running Autopoll from the IPRO Print module, if the server shuts down and rebooting is encountered, the “Autopoll” feature can be set to launch automatically instead of manually launching it. The steps are as follows:
1. Create a shortcut on your desktop for the batchprint/IPROPrint executable.
2. Place your cursor on the shortcut, right click, and bring up properties.
3. Change the shortcut target to the following making sure to change the drive letter to whatever it is on your system:
C:\Program Files\IPRO Tech\IPRO Tech Suite v7.00.00\btchprnt.exe –a
Or
“C:\Program Files\IPRO Tech\IPRO Tech Suite v7.00.00\btchprnt.exe –a”
4. When your system reboots the autopoll should turn on automatically. This way if you have a power outage, or your system reboots it will turn on without you having to manually do it.

Using Rotate Right/Rotate Left Flags
During the scanning process you have the ability to set a rotation flag to indicate that the original is in a landscaped orientation.
When you mark the prep sheet rotate left or rotate right, the system assigns a rotate value for that image at commit, which displays in the Premium Viewer with the correct rotation. This will save your IPRO Premium Viewer client from having to click the rotate button for every landscaped page.
Another advantage of using the “rotate” option is when creating an IPRO Publish CD, the images will display with the correct orientation.
This also will help speed up the OCR process, by checking “Use Viewer Rotation” from the Image Rotation Option the program does not waste memory trying to detect the correct rotation of the image. When a search is performed, the image and the highlighted hit will appear in the correct orientation.

Removing images from a Premium Viewer project
Purpose
You may occasionally want to remove records from the image master database. For example, you might need to delete images that have been scanned into the wrong project. This function removes the requested image keys and all associated tags and annotations from the database.
Specification
For each image to be removed, a corresponding comma-delimited record must be generated in the format:
RP,[Image Key]
Definitions
RP
RP is the identifier that tells the system this is a Remove Page function.
[Image Key]
[Image Key] is the image key to be removed.
Example
RP,ALG-000001
This example applies to any IPRO Tech internal Image format. If you were removing 20 image keys, this file would contain 20 comma-delimited records, each on a separate line.

Generating Reports with IPRO Tech Utility Program
There are a variety of reports that can be generated by the IPRO Tech Utility program. They are:
Gaps report
Used to identify possible gaps in a project’s image keys.
Manifest report
Used to determine how many records are located at a particular boundary level in a project.
Volume report
Used to determine the location of platters on the system. Locations include direct access from a hard drive, local CD-ROM access, alternate volume path access and jukebox access.
Filename report
Used with stacked tiff image files and the volumes they are on.
Volume manifest report
Used to determine the locations of the image file across multiple CD-ROMs.
Image key/File log report
Used to determine the volume and filename associated with an image key.
To run a report, from the Launcher select Configure and Load IPRO Tech Utility. Then from the File drop down menu in the IPRO Tech Utility click Select Project to open the project to run the report on. From the Reports dropdown menu select the type of report to run. Determine a name for the report and which directory to save the TEXT file. The program automatically enters the beginning and ending document numbers in the appropriate location. The report generator can show the report in the status box or not. Once the generator is done, navigate to the directory where the report was saved and open it in a text editor such as Notepad to review it.

IPRO Scan Hot Key Definition Set-up
Defining Image Key Definitions
The Image Key Field Setup dialog box is used to define values for the Image Key structure. Each component may only be defined once per Image Key. For example, you cannot have two Box Descriptions. A warning box appears if you duplicate an Image Key component. The fields defined here appear later in the Image Key of each image
scanned.
Image Key Definitions should not be changed after scanning has been started because they can corrupt the batches. However, if you must change the Image Key Definitions, make sure all batches went through the entire scanning process including Batch Commit.
The changes would then apply for newly created batches.
To define image key definitions
1. Single-click in the Image Key Definition field to display the Image Key Field Setup dialog box.
The Image Key Field Setup dialog box may already contain previously defined values unless you are creating a project for the first time.
2. (Optional) Click Set Default Values to set default values for the project.
All fields populate with the exception of the Sep and Info column fields for each row. You can enter a separator in the Sep column field that you want to use to separate each field in the Image Key. The Information Only (Info) column field is used to keep the image key value succinct. The defined boundary element will not appear in
the image key itself, but can later be searched in the Viewer. Type I (INFO) in the Type column field when defining an information only field.Populate or modify the Image Key Field Setup dialog box, row by row, using the following descriptions for each column and the information displayed in the Help field when your cursor is in that column.
o Description: Type a short definition or description of the field. A typical image key structure consists of Prefix, Box, Page, and Suffix. The Prefix can have three characters that help further organize the collection. Box is used to indicate how many boxes are in the colection. Page is used to automatically increment the number of pages in the collection, and finally the Suffix is used for inserting pages that may have been missed into the original collection.
o Type: Type the appropriate designation in the Type column as described in the following list.
o A=Alphanumeric: Assigns an alphanumeric (e.g. A1) to the field. For example, you may want to assign the Type A to the field of Source.
o N=Numeric: Assigns a numeric (e.g. 1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use Type N for a field called Box.
o P=Page: Increments the page number for each scanned document.
o S=Suffix (alpha or numeric): Assigns either an alpha or numeric (e.g. AA or A1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use Type S for a field called NoSuffix.
o X=Numeric Suffix: Assigns a numeric (e.g. 1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use the Type X for a field called Suffix.
o F=Folder: Assigns an alphanumeric (e.g. A1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use Type F for a field called Folder.
o D=Document: Assigns an alphanumeric (e.g. A1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use Type D for a field called Document. It resets the Image Key and Page counter back to 1 when it reaches a document with a
document boundary. You cannot define both a D type and a C type in any Image Key. They are mutually exclusive. A document boundary does not increment if C (Incremental Child) type is defined in the Image Key.
o C=Incremental Child: Resets the child and page back to 1 when it encounters a child boundary. You cannot define both a C type and a D type in the Image Key. They are mutually exclusive.
o I=Information Only: Keeps the Image Key value succinct; but does not appear in the Image Key itself.
o Req: Type Y to have the Key as a required element of the Image Key or type N to have the Key as an optional element of the Image Key.
o Len: Type a value, ranging from 1 to 30, to indicate the maximum number of characters the field will occupy. This means that the page key can be incremented to 9999. The Source field has a maximum length of 3 and can be incremented to 999 or three alpha and/or numeric characters based on the value in the Type field.
o Fixed: Type Y to enforce the length entered in the Len field. An N in this box will not fix the length of the Key value. For example, a fixed value of 4 will zero fill to the left of the numeric value.
o Sep: Type a separator character. For example, placing a dash in any Sep column field will separate that Key with a dash from the preceding Key. You can use a dash (-), period (.), forward slash (/), or asterisk (*).
o Info: Type data in this field if you want to define your own Key in order to keep the Image Key value succinct, but still provide an extra level of internal definition. The boundary element you define will not appear in the Image Key itself but will appear in the Information Only fields in the IPROView Premium/EZ software. The Information Only fields may be used to capture data such as author, recipient, copyee, or other information not being captured through the Prep Sheet.
When the project is scanned, the Page number will show up in the Image Key as ABC0019999. The maximum length of an image key is 70 characters. The first Image Key in a project with the following key definitions would be ABC0010001. ABC is the source value (in this case; the first source). 001 is the first box in the first source. 0001 is the first page in the first box in the first
source. The key definition for the twentieth (20th) page in the third box in the first source returns an image key of ABC0030020. If you used the separator dash between the Source, the Box, and the Page, the Image Key would look like this: ABC-003-0020.
The Image Key Field Setup dialog box is used to define values for the Image Key structure. Each component may only be defined once per Image Key. For example, you cannot have two Box Descriptions. A warning box appears if you duplicate an Image Key component. The fields defined here appear later in the Image Key of each image
scanned.
Image Key Definitions should not be changed after scanning has been started because they can corrupt the batches. However, if you must change the Image Key Definitions, make sure all batches went through the entire scanning process including Batch Commit.
The changes would then apply for newly created batches.
To define image key definitions
1. Single-click in the Image Key Definition field to display the Image Key Field Setup dialog box.
The Image Key Field Setup dialog box may already contain previously defined values unless you are creating a project for the first time.
2. (Optional) Click Set Default Values to set default values for the project.
All fields populate with the exception of the Sep and Info column fields for each row. You can enter a separator in the Sep column field that you want to use to separate each field in the Image Key. The Information Only (Info) column field is used to keep the image key value succinct. The defined boundary element will not appear in
the image key itself, but can later be searched in the Viewer. Type I (INFO) in the Type column field when defining an information only field.Populate or modify the Image Key Field Setup dialog box, row by row, using the following descriptions for each column and the information displayed in the Help field when your cursor is in that column.
o Description: Type a short definition or description of the field. A typical image key structure consists of Prefix, Box, Page, and Suffix. The Prefix can have three characters that help further organize the collection. Box is used to indicate how many boxes are in the colection. Page is used to automatically increment the number of pages in the collection, and finally the Suffix is used for inserting pages that may have been missed into the original collection.
o Type: Type the appropriate designation in the Type column as described in the following list.
o A=Alphanumeric: Assigns an alphanumeric (e.g. A1) to the field. For example, you may want to assign the Type A to the field of Source.
o N=Numeric: Assigns a numeric (e.g. 1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use Type N for a field called Box.
o P=Page: Increments the page number for each scanned document.
o S=Suffix (alpha or numeric): Assigns either an alpha or numeric (e.g. AA or A1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use Type S for a field called NoSuffix.
o X=Numeric Suffix: Assigns a numeric (e.g. 1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use the Type X for a field called Suffix.
o F=Folder: Assigns an alphanumeric (e.g. A1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use Type F for a field called Folder.
o D=Document: Assigns an alphanumeric (e.g. A1) designation to the field. For example, you may want to use Type D for a field called Document. It resets the Image Key and Page counter back to 1 when it reaches a document with a
document boundary. You cannot define both a D type and a C type in any Image Key. They are mutually exclusive. A document boundary does not increment if C (Incremental Child) type is defined in the Image Key.
o C=Incremental Child: Resets the child and page back to 1 when it encounters a child boundary. You cannot define both a C type and a D type in the Image Key. They are mutually exclusive.

Boundary Range LFP File Clarification
Yesterday we sent out a tip of the day regarding creation of Boundary Range LFP Files. Today we would like to clarify the purpose of the Boundary Range LFP.
The Boundary Range LFP command is used to group a range of images together. For example, a range of 10 images could be turned into a single document or group 100 images into a single folder. Any images with a boundary higher than the new boundary designation within the range will be changed to a page designation. The example shown below will make the image range ABC-0001 thru ABC-0010 a single document. The document boundary flag will be applied to image key ABC-0001 and image keys ABC-0002 thru ABC-0010 will be designated as a page within the document.
BR,ABC-0001,ABC-0010,D
• BR is the identifier that tells the system this is a boundary flag change for a range of image keys.
• ABC-0001 is the first image key in the range
• ABC-0010 is the last image key in the range
• D is the boundary flag to which the image keys within the range will be changed.

BR,ABC-0001,ABC-0010,D
• BR is the identifier that tells the system this is a boundary flag change for a range of image keys.
• ABC-0001 is the first image key in the range
• ABC-0010 is the last image key in the range
• D is the boundary flag to which the image keys within the range will be changed.
Creating a Boundary Range LFP File
Within the IPRO Viewing system, it is possible to modify boundaries for a range of images. This would be accomplished by creating a Boundary Range LFP file. This process is useful when there is a need to change the same boundary designation over a range of image keys. For example, if the need to change all of the child boundaries to a Document designation arose, this LFP could be created to make those changes. For each image range whose boundary designation needed to be changed, a corresponding comma-delimited record must be generated in the following format.
BR,ABC-0001,ABC-0010,D
• BR is the identifier that tells the system this is a boundary flag change for a range of image keys.
• ABC-0001 is the first image key in the range
• ABC-0010 is the last image key in the range
• D is the boundary flag to which the image keys within the range will be changed.

The N must be capital. The %username% variable will pass the Windows username to IPRO.
IPRO always requires a User Name at login, even if security is disabled. IPRO tracks the system settings by user, specifically, the tag palette. This ensures that a particular user always receives their configured tag list, by project, when they load the Premium Viewer. If IPRO security is enabled, users must still enter their passwords. This setup allows the IPRO system to use Windows security login names as their IPRO login names, providing the users are setup within IPRO properly.
While not usually recommended, the System Administrator can disable the IPRO security, allowing ‘Auto Login’, by following the steps below:
• From the IPRO Tech Configuration Program, select File System Options
• Check the Disable system security
This should only be considered if users are allowed access to all projects or the Windows/Network security actually restricts individual user project directories.
• Change IPROView link to (path)\i2kprem.exe -N%username%

IPRO Build
When using the IPRO Build program to burn in annotations, image keys, redactions, etc., into color images or extremely large black and white images, you may encounter memory issues. If so, then you need to increase your memory anywhere from 512 Mb of Ram up to 1 gig of Ram.
IPRO Build requires a block of contiguous memory to load the image, then it requires another block of contiguous memory (each block of memory is the same size as the image) to create a copy of the image to modify.

Start an IPRO ImageServer or VCode Server Without the Configuration Dialog
The IPRO Tech ImageServer and VCode Server products require the configuration of an IP address and port. When the programs are first run the configuration dialog will come up blank.
At this point the IP address of the host machine and the number of an unused local port must be entered, otherwise the program will return an error and close. If valid information is entered in the dialog, when the user clicks 'OK' the information will be saved in an *.ini file and the server will run. For the ImageServer product this file is called iserver.ini. For the VCode Server product it is called codesrvr.ini. These files are located in the directory where Windows is installed, typically c:\winnt.
Subsequently, when the ImageServer or VCode Server products are started the configuration dialog will come up populated with data from the ini file:
If no changes are necessary the user can click 'OK' and the programs will start. This requires, however, that a user be present to click 'OK'. What if it is desired that the program start without user intervention?
It is possible to start an IPRO ImageServer or VCode Server product without clicking 'OK' on the configuration dialog. This is done by using a command line switch in the shortcut that calls the program, whether the program is the ImageServer product, iserver.exe, or the VCode Server product, codesrvr.exe. Below is a property sheet for a shortcut to iserver.exe:
Note that in the 'Target' field there is nothing after 'iserver.exe'. In this configuration the shortcut will launch the ImageServer program and the user will be prompted to confirm the configuration.
Here is a modified shortcut to iserver.exe:
If a command line switch is added after 'iserver.exe' the ImageServer program will start immediately after double-clicking on the shortcut, using the configuration data in the .ini file, and begin to serve client requests without any further user intervention. The example above shows a command line switch of '/auto' but this isn't the only switch that will cause this behavior. ANY switch added after iserver.exe or codesrvr.exe will cause the program to start without further user intervention.
Any of these examples will cause the program to start and immediately begin to service client requests without further user intervention. This holds true for both the ImageServer product, iserver.exe, and the VCode Server product, codesrvr.exe.

IPRO Tech Client Services Tip of the Day
When running the IPROBuild application, the beginning and the ending image key fields are blank. Why does this occur?
With IPROBuild, IPROPublish, IPRO-PDF, and IPRO-OCR (when OCR’ing from an IPRO Tech Project) modules, you must be able to view the images in the Premium Viewer. If you cannot view the images, create the viewing project. This allows the above modules to process correctly.

IPROBuild Cross Reference Files
DID YOU KNOW THAT……………………………
When running buildnew on a project, selecting the re-number option will automatically create two cross- reference files. These files will be located in the directory to which the buildnew project was processed.
For example:
• Process the buildnew project to c:\buildnew\
• If the project name assigned is IPROTECH
• There is an IPROTECH directory under the buildnew directory
• Within that directory will be both a *.XFD and *.XFS file.
The *.XFD file tracks the original document image key number in the project and the new number assigned during the output process. An example is shown below.

When running buildnew on a project, selecting the re-number option will automatically create two cross- reference files. These files will be located in the directory to which the buildnew project was processed.
For example:
• Process the buildnew project to c:\buildnew\
• If the project name assigned is IPROTECH
• There is an IPROTECH directory under the buildnew directory
• Within that directory will be both a *.XFD and *.XFS file.
The *.XFD file tracks the original document image key number in the project and the new number assigned during the output process. An example is shown below.
