Basic Functional Capture Workflow

This workflow is the most basic and simple workflow that you can use with PlanetPress Capture. In small implementations with only one simple document, this may be the only thing required for a functional workflow since, even in this simple state, it can be enough to automate the archive of your digital documents.

Generator Process

The workflow requires two separate processes that will be triggered at different times. The first process, the generator process, produces printable output by merging a data file with a Capture-Ready PlanetPress Design document. For each document page produced, an Anoto Pattern is assigned to the document and locked, and a page is produced in the output. Depending on the setup used, this may produce on or more print jobs or PDFs as an output.

PGC Handling Process

The second process is the PGC Handling process. It receives data from the Anoto Digital pen, updates the Capture database and releases patterns as appropriate.
