About patch codes
Kodak
Capture Pro Software allows you to separate pages and documents on
your scanner with pages containing patch codes. It also allows you to create
attachments to your documents. Before you can use patch code separators,
you must set your job setup to recognize patch codes.
Capture Pro Software supports three types of patch codes:
You can define the separation method for each patch code. This is useful for
existing jobs where Patch 2 codes were used as document separator pages
instead of Patch T codes. You can also define a patch code to create an
attachment. For new jobs and for compatibility reasons, it is recommended
that you use patch codes the way they were designed to be used.
