Kofax Express Getting Started Guide

Indexing Documents

Kofax Express supports the ability to set up index fields to represent the content of the
documents that you scan. Indexing is a two-part process:

„

Configure the index fields before you scan.

„

Select Key from Image to index the documents after you scan.

Configuring Index Fields

Once you determine how many index fields to apply to each document, you can use
the Index Setup tab to configure the values (based on bar codes, document numbers,
image counts, and more) that are automatically assigned, as well as the values that are
to be manually entered. You can also set up a validation mask to verify the accuracy
of the index field values. For more information, see the Index Setup Tab topic in the
Help.

Selecting Key from Image to Index Documents

To perform indexing and verification, you click

Key from Image to switch to

indexing mode. While indexing mode is active, the Key from Image panel and
navigation toolbar (Figure 5) are displayed on the right side of the application
window. In this mode, you can view and verify automatically applied index values,
or you can manually enter the values. While you are in indexing mode, the index
fields cannot be configured; indexing is intended strictly for verification or entry of
index fields. For more information, see the Home Tab - Index Group topic in the Help.
