1699794 - Make Omnipage soft timeout configurable
A new Timeout property is available in the MpsPageRecogProfileOmniPage and can be set via script. The Timeout value uses milliseconds for its unit.
Use the following syntax example:
Private Sub Application_InitializeScript()
Dim profile As MpsPageRecogProfileOmniPage
Set profile = Project.RecogProfiles.ItemByName("OmniPage")
' Set timeout to 5 minutes
profile.Timeout = 300000
End Sub

Problems Resolved in Previous Fix Packs
=======================================
Problems Resolved in Fix Pack 7
===============================
1670255 - OCR results decreased from FineReader engine 11.1 to 12.2 in KTM 6.3
It is now possible to use the FineReader “ProhibitModelAnalysis” property in script to improve OCR Results in some cases.
This option is available via script only and does not appear on the user interface. The value for this option is set to True by default.
When this option is set to False, the recognition engine uses model analysis to improve recognition in some cases.
Note: This property can be saved in the project. This means that the script does not need to be executed each time a project is processed.
Execute the script from Project Builder and then save the project. The setting is then set when the project is used in production.
Use the following script sample to set this option, modifying it for your specific needs.
Private Sub Application_InitializeScript()
PreventModelAnalysis()
End Sub
Private Sub PreventModelAnalysis()
Dim pageProfile As IMpsRecogProfile
Dim pageProfileFr As MpsPageRecogProfileFR
Set pageProfile = Project.RecogProfiles.ItemByName("FineReader")
Set pageProfileFr = pageProfile
pageProfileFr.PreventModelAnalysis = False
End Sub

Installation Instructions
=========================
Before installing this fix pack, note the following:
* Do not remove or attempt to repair Kofax Transformation Modules using the .msp file provided with this
fix pack. This can corrupt your installation and cause errors.
* You must have full Windows administrative privileges to perform these procedures.
* Make sure that Kofax Capture and Kofax Transformation Modules 6.4.0 are installed before applying the fix pack.
* Install the fix pack on each client and standalone workstation running Kofax Transformation Modules. You can either run
the installation from the .exe file or use the .msp file from the Command Prompt, which also gives you the option to
run logging.
Installing the Fix Pack with the .exe File
==========================================
Perform these steps on each client and workstation running Kofax Transformation Modules:
1. Close all Kofax Transformation Modules applications and services.
2. Run KofaxTransformationModules-6.4.0.8.exe to install the fix pack.
3. When you are notified that the installation process has been successfully completed, click OK to clear the confirmation message.
Installing the Fix Pack with the .msp File
==========================================
NOTE: An MSP is no longer included with Kofax Transformation Modules.
For Kofax Transformation Modules fix packs, it is possible to extract the MSP from the executable as follows.
KofaxTransformationModules-6.4.0.8.exe /T: /C
Where /T specifies the temporary working folder and /C extracts the files. These two parameters must be used together if you want to extract the MSP file from the executable.
In addition to these parameters, you can also use /Q for quiet mode.
The same goes for the Thin Client Server. You can extract the MSP from the executable using these same parameters.
IMPORTANT: Do not remove or attempt to repair Kofax Transformation Modules using the extracted .msp file. This can corrupt your installation and cause errors.
Perform these steps on each client and workstation running Kofax Transformation Modules:
1. Start the Command Prompt
2. Use the cd command to switch to the folder containing .msp file.
3. Run the following command:
msiexec /update KofaxTransformationModules-6.4.0.8.msp REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=omus PATCHINSTALL=1
To enable logging, add the /L switch to the end of the command. The following command generates verbose logging to C:\KofaxTransformationModules-6.4.0.8.log:
/L*v C:\KofaxTransformationModules-6.4.0.8.log
Uninstalling the fix pack
=========================
Before uninstalling this fix pack, note the following:
* You must have full Windows administrative privileges to perform these procedures.
* Have access to "KofaxTransformationModules-6.4.0.iso", the original installer program for Kofax Transformation Modules 6.4.0.
Mount the ISO image or use the network resource.
