Importing Replacement Images
Contents
You can use a load file to replace images already in a case with images that may have been redacted or altered in some other way by an external application.
Import considerations
Note the following considerations before you replace existing images using a load file: Load file considerations •The load file must contain a document number for each replacement image that corresponds with the BegDoc# field or the DocID field of the original document. Note that OCR text associated with the load file is not imported. If a file listed in the load file cannot be found, the import operation skips the file and continues loading the next listed file. •To avoid the extra overhead of merging or splitting images while performing the import into the case, it is recommended to produce the load file in the same storage format as the images contained in the case. Folder structures •The import process maintains the folder structure of the destination image. So if a serialized load file is imported into a case containing multi page images only, those images will remain as multi page images after the batch image replacement has completed. Backup of originals •You have the option to keep renamed copies of the originals or to delete the originals. If you keep the original files, they are renamed using the following scheme: <originalfilename>_v01<.image extension> For example, SomeExampleImage.opt is renamed as SomeExampleImage_V01.opt. Switching the file type •CloudNine™ LAW supports the replacement of images with a different image file type. So importing a single page JPG image will overwrite the single page TIFF image in the case.

You can select from among the following options when importing replacement images: •Source File These types of load files are supported: •IPro .lfp •Opticon .log or .opt •Import Mode The following import modes are provided: •Retain copy of original image. Default option. Copies of the original documents are kept. •Replace existing images (permanent). Original images are permanently deleted. •Import Options •Reset OCR flags for replaced images. Sets the OCR flag of each page to Y and then refreshes the OCR status of the document. This option helps you to run OCR again on the replaced documents if necessary. •Tag replaced images. This option allows you to set a selected Tag (Boolean) field to checked for each document that receives a replaced image. This option can help you to more easily create a query that returns all of the affected documents. You can also use this option to define a new tag before you apply it to the images. Select <Create New Field…> to add a Tag (Boolean) field to the case without having to open the Modify Fields dialog box.
