To begin configuring a signature detection column for Line Item Extraction, ensure that the Signature Detection tab is selected in the Modify Line Item Column dialog box. Then follow the procedures below.

  1. Use the Keyword Type drop-down list to select the Keyword Type that values in the selected column are assigned to as Keyword Values.

    To ignore the data in the selected column or capture it as XML data only, select <None> from the Keyword Type drop-down list.

  2. If the form is configured to create an XML rendition of documents matched to it (i.e., the Create XML data rendition option is selected for the form), the XML Node drop-down list is displayed.
    Use the XML Node drop-down list to select the XML node (i.e., the element) that Keyword Values extracted from this column are contained in when the XML rendition of the document is created.
  3. In the Keyword Values section, do the following:
    1. In the Positive Result Value field, enter the Keyword Value that is assigned if the OCR engine determines that a signature is present.
    2. In the Negative Result Value field, enter the Keyword Value that is assigned if the OCR engine determines that a signature is not present.

      For example: you are processing an application that requires a signature to indicate that the data has been verified. Depending on if a signature is present or not, a Keyword Value is assigned to the Verified Keyword Type.

      • If a signature is detected, Yes is assigned as the Verified Keyword Value.

      • If a signature is not detected, No is assigned as the Verified Keyword Value.

  4. In the Options section, do the following:

    • If the signature is located in a pre-defined space, such as a box or on a signature line, select Signature is framed/underlined.

    • If the signature is located in an undefined or blank space, select Signature area is unframed.

    • To ignore machine-printed text in the Data Field Zone (e.g., Signature, Applicant Signature, etc.), select the Exclude machine print text check box.

      This prevents the signature detection results from being impacted by the presence of machine-printed text.

  5. In the Sensitivity section, select a radio button to determine the Suspect Level for this Data Field Zone.

    • Highest. Sets the Suspect Level for this Data Field Zone to 70.

    • Low. Sets the Suspect Level for this Data Field Zone to 75.

    • Lower. Sets the Suspect Level for this Data Field Zone to 80.

    • Lowest. Sets the Suspect Level for this Data Field Zone to 85.

    • Custom. Allows you to enter a value (from 1 to 99) for the Suspect Level for this Data Field Zone. If enter a value of 0 or leave the field blank, the value will reset to 50.

      The Suspect Level is the level of confidence placed in the processing results for this field.

      After a zone is processed, the OCR engine gives the resulting value a score between 1 and 99, depending on how confident it is in the result that was returned. The higher the score is, the lower the OCR engine's confidence is in the results.

      The Sensitivity level selected for this field is the threshold at which the OCR engine determines if a returned value is acceptable or suspect. A score returned by the OCR engine higher than the Suspect Level threshold you set causes the value captured from the zone to be marked as suspect. All scores lower than the Suspect Level threshold indicate that the captured value is considered by the OCR engine to be acceptable.

      For example, setting the Sensitivity to Lowest would indicate you have a fair amount of confidence in the result returned by the OCR engine because few higher scores could be returned and fewer results would be determined to be suspect.

      Setting the Suspect Level to Highest would indicate you have less confidence in the result because a great number of lower scores could be returned and more results would be determined as suspect.

  6. If you would like to assign specific colors to the Keyword Type configured for the Data Field Zone, click the Colors button. The Display Colors dialog box is displayed.

    Here you can change the colors in which any regular or suspect values for the corresponding Keyword Type are displayed in the Indexing panel once processing has taken place.

    • To change the display color for regular values, click Display Color to open your machine's color palette, select a color, and click OK.

    • To change the display color for suspect values, click Suspect Color to open your machine's color palette, select a color, and click OK.

    • To revert back to the default display color for regular or suspect values, click the Automatic button that corresponds to the desired type of values (i.e., the left button left for regular values, the right button for suspect values).

    Note:

    Any colors assigned here can be overridden by colors assigned through Keyword Lookup/Replace settings and/or VB scripting.
