Modifying triggers

You can modify page group, supplemental page, and page-level trigger definitions. When you modify a trigger, the boundaries of the page groups might change.
    Note:
  • Be careful modifying triggers if you have made other enhancements to the sample AFP file. For example, if you have created index tags and you modify the page group triggers, the index tags might become invalid. In addition, other types of definitions in the control file (for example, barcodes created with AFP Editor) might not work properly if they are based on the page groups or index tags created with AFP Indexer.
  • In RICOH Visual Workbench you can display measurement units in inches or millimeters. To change the measurement unit, click View ⇒ Units.

To modify a trigger definition:

  1. In RICOH Visual Workbench, open a sample AFP file and the control file that contains the definitions for the triggers. Then click Mode ⇒ AFP Indexer.
  2. Click Tools ⇒ Modify Definitions.
    You see the Modify and Delete Definitions window.
  3. Select the name of the trigger that you want to modify.
  4. Click Modify, or double-click.
    You see the Modify Trigger window.
  5. To edit the trigger value, click Edit trigger. Edit the trigger value in the Edit Value window and click OK.
  6. Click the Advanced tab to change the text threshold, the method for matching the trigger, or both:
    • Select a range from 1/100 to 1 inch or from 1 to 25 millimeters for the text threshold.
    • Select the method used to match the trigger–on the trigger string value and the text block position, or on the position only.
  7. Click OK.
    In the left pane and in the bottom pane, you see the page groups that have been defined based on the trigger value. You also see the pages that are included in each page group.
  8. To close the Modify and Delete Definitions window, click X in the upper right corner.
