When using a custom input configuration, a large number of options are available to control the transform operation. Input options control which items appear in the output file and how images are processed. Typically these options should be left at the default settings.
You can access this dialog box when you configure a transform action for business rules or output processes or when configuring an IPDS destination.
Click an option you want to learn more about.
Convert to image - Converts and stores the page contents as an image on input.
Invert duplex - Inverts duplex information, i.e. back to front and vice versa.
Copy comments - Copies the comments stored in the input file.
It is not guaranteed that all of the comments
specified in the input file can be copied to the output file. For example,
TIFF files accept only one comment.
Obfuscate text - Changes the text to be unreadable when reading the page (input). This is helpful if you are dealing with sensitive customer documents. Obfuscate does not work for documents where the text is stored in a custom encoding or as part of an image.
Enable full printable area for PCL input - Specifies that logical page matches physical page (page margins are not ignored).
Convert and append attachments (PDF 1.6) - Only available when using PDF input file.
Specifies the items in the input file you want removed. The items will not appear in the output file.
Specifies the dithering method that will be used.
Default - The software attempts to determine the best dithering method to use.
Clustered order - Clustered order dithering with specification of matrix size. Values are 2 to 8, with a default value of 3.
Dispersed order - Dispersed order dithering with specification of matrix size. Values are 2 to 8, with a default value of 4.
Floyd-Steinberg - Dithering with error diffusion algorithm Floyd-Steinberg, It examines a small neighborhood of four pixels surrounding the central pixel, and distributes the error in a defined structure.
Jarvis-Judice-Ninke - Dithering with error diffusion algorithm Jarvis-Judice-Ninke. It uses substantially larger neighborhoods that contain a greater number of pixels in order to spread the error distribution.
Stucki - Dithering with error diffusion algorithm Stucki. It uses substantially larger neighborhoods that contain a greater number of pixels in order to spread the error distribution.
Monochrome threshold - Monochrome conversion with specification of threshold percent value (0 - 100). The default value is 50.
Specifies the image color depth in bits of the input file. You can select one of the following:
1: Monochrome
8: Grayscale, Palette
24: RGB
32: CMYK
Specifies the image type of the input file, RGB, CMYK, Grayscale, or Palette.
Specifies the password for password protected input files.
Specifies the items you want to be rendered on conversion to image.
Additional global commands - Specifies parameters that you want to pass to profiles. Typically would be used to pass JSL/JDE values to a LCDS profile, or PAGEDEF and FORMDEF values to a MMD profile.
Additional input commands - Specifies additional parameters for handling the input file. Input commands can consist of text and one or more document properties. You can insert document properties by right-clicking in the text box, selecting Insert Document Property, and choosing the appropriate properties. The document properties will display enclosed in brackets ([]). Contact Barr Systems Technical Support for more information on advanced transform configuration.
Specifies a filter profile to override the profile configured in the transform package for this input/output combination.
The filter profile can consist of text and one or more document properties. You can insert document properties by right-clicking in the text box, selecting Insert Document Property, and choosing the appropriate properties. The document properties will display enclosed in brackets ([]).
