Manual Import Images* allows you to import image files created from another source (e.g., an engineering drawing scanner) into the currently displayed document in the software.

When you select Manual Import Images, the Open dialog box will be displayed. Navigate to the directory from where you want to import images and select the image file(s). BMP, JPEG, PDF, TIFF, IOCA, MODCA, GIF, CMP and PNG image files can be imported. Imported images will be inserted immediately before the image that is selected in the currently displayed document. If there are no selected images, the imported images will be appended to the end of the current document.

Both single- and multi-page TIFF files are supported. When importing a multi-page TIFF file, each image in the file will be imported as a separate image into the document.

More than one image file can be selected for import. If more than one image file is selected, the images will be imported in alphabetical/numerical order according to their image file name.

View pending auto-import tasks — displays a table of all the auto-import jobs sent to Capture Pro using the Auto Import API (application programming interface) that have not completed yet.

Auto Import Setup — displays the Auto Import Setup dialog box which allows you to configure auto import “watch folders”. You can identify watch folders and assign them user friendly names using the Auto Image Setup dialog box. You can also identify directories for archiving and error handling, assign error threshold levels, specify auto import batch separation rules, and timeout intervals.

Set Image Address* displays the Image Address dialog box, which allows you to change image address settings for your batch. This option becomes active only if you have a scanner capable of image addressing. For more information, click here.
