Document Breaks

You may find that you receive image files containing records that do not have preset document breaks or breaks that are not placed correctly or need to be changed. If so, you can set or change them in Concordance Image.

Concordance Image assumes that data is stored at a document level in each database, and marks the image specified in the image field as the document break. If the image field information is incorrect, you need to reset the document breaks. The Imagebase Management dialog allows you to set document breaks in the imagebase based on the current Concordance query.

Note

The Document Breaks tab in the Imagebase Management dialog will not be active if you do not have an active Concordance database link to the imagebase.

7.To reset all all document breaks for the documents in the current query, select Reset all document breaks before proceeding.  Concordance Image checks to see if the image alias values match the values of the Concordance field in the Image field. If the image alias and Concordance fields values match, Concordance Image sets the document break at the image alias value. If the values do not match, Concordance Image will not create a document break at the image alias value.

8.To reset all page counts for the documents in the current query, select Clear all page counts before proceeding.  Concordance Image clears the existing page counts and resets the page counts based on the new document breaks.
