Zonal Subfields tab - Properties of A2iA Zone Locator window

The A2iA Zone Locator is now deprecated and no longer supported. The A2iA Zone Locator and the Check and Cursive Recognition engine remain for reference purposes only and are not meant for use in production. However, if you have used an A2iA Zone Locator in a previous release, it is possible to continue to use these locators at your own risk.

Ideally, migrate these locators to a supported locator method. Before migrating an A2iA Zone Locator it is necessary to install the Check and Cursive Recognition Add-On.

When you migrate an A2iA Zone Locator, the following behavior occurs:

  1. If an A2iA Zone Locator is configured to use the CheckReader functionality, then it is migrated to a Check Locator.

  2. If an A2iA Zone Locator is configured to use the FieldReader functionality, it is migrated to an Advanced Zone Locator that uses the FormXtra recognition engine . If a single A2iA Zone Locator has multiple zones then multiple FormXtra zone profiles are created, one for each zone. This enables you to configure unique settings for each zone.

See the Tungsten TotalAgility Installation Guide for more information on installing the Check and Cursive Recognition Add-On.

The A2iA Zone Locator can produce multiple results, known as subfields. This Zonal Subfields tab enables you to add subfields associated with the zones you select. If you need to define subfields when you use CheckReader, use the Custom Subfields tab.

The Subfield Definition group lists all subfields as well as enables you manage those subfields using the following buttons:

Add

Click to add a subfield. In the Name column, type a name for your subfield. The best practice for naming subfields is that you use the naming convention "SF_<Descriptive Name>."

Delete

Click to remove the currently selected subfield.

Rename

Click to change the name of the selected subfield.

Generate

By default, a subfield is created automatically and mapped to the zones. If you have deleted the subfield and want to create a new subfield automatically, then click this button. The mapping on this tab is intended to be used for zones that were added manually and where the subfields were not generated automatically.

The Zone/Subfield Mapping group lists each subfield and their corresponding zone.

The following buttons are available at the bottom of this window:
