11 Vol. 1 Introduction 2 Overview OMS-100 Purpose OMS-100 is an easy to install, easy to use application which allows to print optical marks on a document or series of documents in order to control an inserter where the documents are inserted into envelopes. Several criteria allow to control the data input and the desired way of processing, and with the possibility to set the Optical Mark settings accordingly the documents will be prepared to be processed with the selected inserter. OMS-100 works with several document types; adds optical marks such as bar codes or OMR codes; handles multi-size, multi-page jobs with varying page count; provides full mail piece integrity; allows to store and reuse job templates. Architecture OMS-100 can be run local on a computer or server. It is designed to configure a template for the print output of single or multiple input files. This template may be designed for printing purpose only or may in addition be designed to add some information for the print output to be processed in an inserter. Every printer which is installed on the computer or server is suitable as an output device, so you can use local printers, network printers or virtual printers (e.g. to create PDF-files). Figure 8: Overview of the architecture of OMS-100 Publishing version: V2.2 11

13 2.2 Modules of OMS-100 Vol. 1 Introduction Some advanced options are only available if a specific module is activated. It depends on the license, which modules are activated on a system. The following modules are available: Module DataMatrix Multi-Envelope Print Batches Description This module enables the DataMatrix (2D) code, an optical mark type in addition to the standard barcode. The advantages of DataMatrix is that it needs less space than the barcode and can contain more data. For further information about DataMatrix please refer to Step 7 - Optical Marks (p. 64). The Multi-Envelope Print Batches module allows to use print batches. Print batches provide a sophisticated optional feature that allows to categorize and group documents. Depending on the number of sheets in a document or other criteria defined by the user, the document is allocated to a specific print batch. A typical use of print batches is to collect all documents which fit into a specified envelope size or where a special envelope is needed. Each print batch is printed in a separate print job, thus enabling the operator to change the settings of the inserter. If printed to a PDF-file, each print batch creates a new document. For further information about print batches please refer to Step 5 - Print Batches (p. 57). Publishing version: V2.2 13

57 Vol. 3 Operating 3.6 Step 5 - Print Batches Print batches are only available if the Multi-Envelope Print Batches module has been activated. If you have not purchased the Multi-Envelope Print Batches module however the Advanced Print Order Options are still available. The use of print batches is a sophisticated way to separate mail pieces according to various criteria, i.e., the number of sheets per envelope, where document sets with less than a specific amount of sheets will be inserted into small envelopes and document sets with a higher amount of sheets will be inserted into large envelopes. Of course the separation may be defined according to print batch criteria which can be defined as necessary. In the work flow the printing of each print batch will be done in a separate print job, thus enabling the operator to change the settings of the inserter. If printed to a PDF-file, each print batch creates a new document. This step offers the possibility to edit the print batches and to add print batch criteria for each print batch. The Print Batches tab displays as follows: Figure 96: Main screen: Print batches The right (configuration) side displays the Print Batches definition area Print Batch Options When you check the Create multiple print batches check box, the list of preconfigured print batches is displayed, separated by the number of sheets per document: Name of Print Batch Setting Default Sheet Limit Description Standard Envelopes 8 Documents with up to 8 sheets are assigned to the Standard Envelope print batch; Large Envelopes 25 Documents from 9 to 25 sheets are assigned to the Large Envelopes print batch; Default - This setting is chosen, if the sheet limit exceeds all other settings.

93 Vol. 4 Reference Manual IV Vol. 4 Reference Manual This chapter provides additional detailed information about specific topics related to OMS Error Handling / Exceptional Behaviour This part of the manual provides information and solutions to known errors or exceptional behaviour that might appear while working with OMS Text Extraction Exception Where can the exception occur? Which Step? Where Inside Step? Step 2 - Identify Documents (p. 48) Step 4 - Enclosures (p. 54) Step 5 - Print Batches (p. 57) Step 6 - Inserter Control (p. 62) Step 7 - Optical Marks (p. 64) By adding or editing Identification Criteria inside the pop-up menu. By adding or editing a Criteria Specific Enclosure inside the pop-up menu. By adding or editing a Criteria Specific Print Batch inside the pop-up menu. By adding or editing Divert Criteria inside the pop-up menu. By adding or editing a Inserter Function inside the pop-up menu. By Including a Customer ID in the optical marks. Description If you want to set criteria in OMS-100, depending on data from the input file(s), it might happen that the text which is displayed properly inside the selection area of the preview pane is not properly displayed in the text area of the specific criteria pop-up window. There are two possible mismatches: Symptom of the Mismatch Possible Reason for the Mismatch The text is not displayed at all in the pop-up window. The text displayed in the pop-up-window is garbled. The text marked in the preview pane was primarily scanned as image or was converted to a raster image by an application or printer driver. Therefore it is not possible for OMS-100 to display the originally used character. The primarily used font is a bitmapped font. If the font is embedded to the PCL-file the character can be displayed, but not recognized as the specific character because in bitmapped fonts the character is translated into a graphical element. Only with an OCR software (Optical Character Recognition) it is possible to find out which character is displayed. OMS-100 does not provide OCR. The printer driver which was used to create the PCL-file used non-standard encoding (ASCII / ANSI / UNICODE standard) therefore it is not possible for OMS-100 to display the primarily used character. Publishing version: V2.2 93

94 OMS-100 User Manual Possible Work Around In some cases it is however possible to work around this issue by setting the Type-field inside the pop-up-window from Text to Image to use the text as a graphical reference. If it is not possible to specify a criterion by an image you can do as follows: Avoid font embedding Use printer resident fonts for creating input files If the printer driver has a TrueType Font option set it to Substitute with Device Font. Install the embedded font on the system where OMS-100 is running, and don't embed it anymore. Use PDF instead of PCL In general, the PDF format is better suited for the use of embedded fonts and for text extraction. If the text is displayed garbled because of a font which uses a non-standard code, it does not solve the problem to install the font locally, because only the code is used for text extraction. 1.2 Data Base Log File and Config File Location If you have to report an error to the support service you may be asked to provides some additional files. The following files can be found in the following directories: Files: File Data base file: Log files: Full Name OMS.db OMS-100-<yyyy><mm><dd>.log.txt Transform.Trace.txt Transform.TraceOrFormula.txt <yyyy><mm><dd> stands for the date, the log file was created.

95 Vol. 4 Reference Manual 2 Additional / Detailed Information As the place for detailed explanations is limited when describing a specific feature, this section gives additional detailed information which might be useful to the operator or technician. The topics herein are referenced in the user manual where needed. 2.1 Optical Marks BCR BCR stands for BarCode Reading. The barcode is a set of bars in a row (horizontal) or in a column (vertical). DataMatrix (2D) Figure 184: BCR mark An alternative way is the DataMatrix (2D) code. The information is here encoded in a pattern of small squares. The advantage of the DataMatrix is that it needs less space and can store more data than the barcode. Figure 185: Example of a 2D DataMatrix DataMatrix (2D) is only available if the DataMatrix module has been activated. BCR Code This is an example of BCR-coded information for a sheet with high integrity level, included customer ID and information about added enclosures and preconfigured inserter functions. Depending on the configuration more or less information is stored in the optical mark. Sheet N/M, Sheet Sequence, Group Sequence and Insert Code are explained in Integrity Level. The Enclosure code is a 2-digit hex code which carries information about how enclosures should be added. The Inserter Function is a 2-digit hex code which carries information about when criteria specific inserter functions should be executed. Customer ID is explained below. Figure 186: Example of data stored in an optical mark Not all inserter models support all inserter functions. Also the number of feeder stations depends on the type of the inserter. Please ensure the configuration is compatible to the used inserter model. Publishing version: V2.2 95

96 OMS-100 User Manual Customer ID (BCR) It is possible to store a customer ID in the optical mark. This is useful, for example if a document is returned after shipping, to quickly identify the customer. Some types of inserter models also store a log file with the information stored in the optical marks. Like that it can be used as a tool to reconstruct the way of documents sent to one specific customer. As customer ID numbers (0-9) or normal text (A-Z, a-z) can be added. Special characters are limited to the following characters: "-" "." "$" "%" "/" "+" Figure 187: Optical marks: customer ID The customer ID should not be used as a criterion for integrity. For more information about Integrity please consult Integrity Level. OMR OMR stands for Optical Mark Reading. This is the less complex code available in OMS-100. As OMR is simpler, as the other optical marks, it is easier to read for some inserters and it is also readable for humans with according knowledge of the code. Disadvantages of OMR are the missing integrity features and there is also no possiblity to configure the inserter automatically with a configuration sheet. Figure 188: OMR mark 96

97 Vol. 4 Reference Manual OMR Code This is an example of OMR-coded information for an inserter supporting all features that are available in OMS-100. For more information about what when a specific mark is set, please consult the Technician Manual. Figure 189: OMR code example Not all inserter models support all inserter functions. Also the number of feeder stations depends on the type of the inserter. Please ensure the configuration is compatible to the used inserter model. Enclosures In Step 4 - Enclosures (p. 54) enclosures can be added to documents. As soon as a criterion is defined for a specific feeder station, the function for adding an enclosure to this station is created. This function has also access to positions in the optical mark code to store information for the inserter. When after that moment the Add an enclosure to certain documents based on a specific criterion check box is unchecked the function is not deleted, but disabled. The positions in the optical mark code do remain as well but with the 'disabled'-value stored at that position.

This mark is similar to 'Insert on mark'. Insert This mark indicates to the inserter that the document in the accumulator has to be inserted. When the Insert and Accumulate boxes are checked, the 'Insert' marks are the opposite of the 'Accumulate' marks. If only this box is checked, the mark is similar to 'Insert on mark'. Accumulate This mark indicates to the inserter that the page has to be accumulated. When the Insert and Accumulate boxes are checked, the 'Accumulate' marks are the opposite of the 'Insert' marks. If only this box is checked, the mark is similar to 'Insert on space'. Publishing version: V2.2 99

100 OMS-100 User Manual The following table provides some OMR details that can be configured independently of any inserter feature: Detail Description Start mark This mark will be present on every sheet to indicate optically where the OMR code begins Stop inserter Stops the inserter if the mark is present Sequence check (bit 1)... (bit 5) 5 marks can be used for sheet sequence control. I. e., sheet sequence can be controlled for up to 32 sheets Parity check This mark can be added for code integrity purpose. Even parity is used, i. e. if the mark is present, the number of marks (including parity mark) is even Safety mark This mark will be present on every sheet to mark optically where the OMR code ends Please note, that the 'Start mark', the 'Safety mark' and the 'Parity check' are not available when using a 2-track OMR. 100

101 Vol. 4 Reference Manual 2.3 User Defined Criteria In Step 2 - Identify Documents (p. 48), Step 4 - Enclosures (p. 54), Step 5 - Print Batches (p. 57) and Step 6 - Inserter Control (p. 62), there can be set user defined criteria for different functions. Read this topic for a detailed description about how these criteria can be defined and how they will be processed: When adding a new criterion, a pop-up menu will open where you have to fill in a form with different entries. With the mouse there can be drawn a selection area directly inside the preview pane to select the position, where text or an image will be extracted for the logical comparison. Figure 192: Identification criteria The pop-up windows differs depending on the current step and function. The following Items should be available for all user defined criteria. Menu Item Description Name Type Name of the criterion, can be selected. Choose between Text or Image type for the extraction of the data. The default type is Text. The text selected inside the preview pane with the mouse is displayed inside the text area at the bottom of the pop-up menu. By choosing Image a preview of the part which is inside the selection area is displayed. This type can be used to identify documents on graphical criteria (e.g. a logo which is displayed only on the first page of a document). If no text could be recognized inside the selection area, the type is changed automatically to Image type. If the type is Image, the image has to be on exactly the same place on every page, otherwise document separation may be erroneous. Logical Comparator In the drop-down list a logical comparator can be selected. Depending on the current step and the type selected above, some of the following logical comparators can be selected: Logical Comparator Description changes Contains is equal to is not equal to True, if the value of the previous page differs to the value of the current page. True if the input value contains the criterion value. True, if both input value and criterion value are the same. True, if the input value and criteria value are not the same Publishing version: V

102 OMS-100 User Manual Preview area At the bottom of the pop-up menu there is a preview area, where either the text or the image inside the selection area is displayed. If the extracted value is text, it is possible to adjust the value inside the preview area. There are two kind of comparators: Absolute comparators Relative comparators The only relative comparator is changes. The other comparators (contains, is equal to, is not equal to) are absolute comparators. Relative Comparator (Changes) If a relative comparator is selected, the value (text / image) at the position of the selection area of the current page is compared to the value at the same position on the previous page. If the value changes, the logical comparison results positive. This comparator can be used only to identify documents. When the logical comparison is positive, OMS-100 identifies a new document beginning with the current page. Absolute Comparator (Contains, is Equal To, is Not Equal To) If an absolute comparator is selected, the value (text / image) at the position of the selection area of the current page is compared to the value inside the preview area at the bottom of the pop-up window. Like this the extracted values from the different pages are compared always with a fix value. When the selection area is drawn, as default for this value is entered the value inside the selection area on the current page. If Text type is selected, this default value can be adjusted by clicking inside the text area. In some cases it might be possible that the text extracted from the document is not displayed properly in the text area. More information about this issue are provided in Text Extraction Exception (p. 93). If you find no way to extract the text, in some cases it is however possible to work around this issue by setting the type inside the pop-up-window from "Text" to "Image". If multiple criteria are defined the criteria are logically OR connected. Exception: for multiple identification criteria the user can choose the logical comparator himself (OR/AND). 102

103 2.4 Multiple Print Batches and Criteria Rules Vol. 4 Reference Manual If multiple print batch criteria are defined, it may be difficult to see how they are handled and prioritized by OMS-100. Read this topic to get a detailed description about that rules. Documents are assigned to a print batch following this rules: A document must not have more sheets than the sheet limit defined in the print batch. Sheet limit "0" or "-" means: No limitation. Documents are assigned to the print batch with the smallest possible sheet limit. If a user defined criterion matches, the document is assigned to the selected print batch. Exception: if the document exceeds the sheet limit of the selected print batch, it is assigned to the print batch with the smallest possible sheet limit. Multiple criteria specific print batches are OR-linked.
