CHAPTER 2

Document Viewing – Applet Viewer


Image Viewer Applet is a lightweight multithreaded applet, based on Java beans
architecture, which comes along with OmniDocs. It uses Newgen’s Java-based
imaging libraries to support viewing, manipulating, and applying diverse annotations
on documents of various Image formats, such as TIFF, JPEG, GIF etc., and can be
used with any standard browser (IE/Netscape etc.). Image Viewer applet uses a
unique progressive display mechanism for optimized image display. It provides super
fast geometric operations like invert, flip etc. In addition, when image document is
opened in applet viewer user can perform the rotation of images in multiple of 90
degree angle and also can save the rotation. After saving rotation, the document will
be updated in repository as well.

The user can view both image and non-image documents in the Newgen OmniDocs
Web application. The document properties, notes, and annotations attached with the
document are also displayed in this application.

To view any document, follow the following trace:


Select the document from the OmniDocs Web Desktop. The non-image documents
are invoked in the browser, and image documents are invoked in the Applet. In case
OIVT is installed on the server machine, user is given an option to set his own
preferences in order to view the document.

NOTE: The annotations applied on the image document through the OmniDocs
Desktop are also visible in the OmniDocs Web.

2.10 Document view in Full Text Search

2.10.1 Hit Highlighting


A user can perform full text search to determine the documents that contain specific
word(s) or phrase. The documents that contain those word(s) are then listed. The
user can then view the document.
Generally the user wants to see that part of the document, which contains the
specified word(s). The Hit-highlighting feature opens the image document and
highlights the specified words wherever they occur in the document. In case of
multiple pages initially, the first page that contains any of the specified word is
opened.

Full text search is a very powerful feature for retrieving documents. It is performed by
specifying a word within the document body to search for. All the documents that
contain that text are obtained. It is very useful in situations where the user is looking
for all the documents that pertain to some particular subject and are present in
different locations.

Fig: 2.127

Newgen OmniDocs 8.1 Reference Manual Page 612


Full text search feature is provided in the OmniDocs product for both the image and
non-image documents. The user can search for documents by specifying the words
that he is looking for in the document body. All the documents that contain that text
are identified and are then listed.

Fig: 2.128

The user specifies search criteria for full text search, the documents are searched
based on this criteria and the resultant document list is then displayed to the user.
The user can then view any of those documents.

Newgen OmniDocs 8.1 Reference Manual Page 613


Fig: 2.129

The first objective is to provide the user a mean to identify the exact location where
those words are present so that he does not have to look for them in the document.
We can do this by highlighting the searched words in the document. So whenever
the user views the document retrieved as a result of FTS, the document will be
displayed with the word on which search was done, coming highlighted, at all the
places where the word is present in the document.
The word may be present at multiple locations in the same page or in case of multi-
page document it may be present in different pages.
The second objective for the case of multi-page document is to allow him to navigate
to the next or previous page that contains that word.
We can do this by providing four toolbar buttons. Two for moving to the next or
previous location of the word in the same page and two for moving to the next or
previous page

Newgen OmniDocs 8.1 Reference Manual Page 614


The user can also traverse between the pages that contain the given word

Full Text Search – OD Web Desktop

User can even carry out the full text search using the OD Web Desktop. This they
can carry out by following the given steps:-
1) Select the Search option in OD Web Desktop home page.
2) In the Search Option, select Full Text Search.
3) Following page appears:

Fig: 2.130

4) In this page, enter the necessary details.


5) Click the Search button, to search the text.
6) Else, click Clear to clear the entered details.

Newgen OmniDocs 8.1 Reference Manual Page 615


Fig: 2.131

2.10.2 Ranking
When we search a document through full text search in search results we are
provided a column called rank in it. The rank indicates the frequency of no of
occurrences of the searched word, for e.g. if the rank for a document “A” is 10 and
the rank for a document “B” is 15 then it indicates the frequency of occurrence of
searched word is more in the document having rank as 15.

CHAPTER 3

Document Viewing – OpAll Viewer


OpAll Viewer is a highly advanced, lightweight HTML5 viewer, which like a document
viewer provides the functionality of viewing document images of various industry
standard formats in different view modes. The HTML5 Viewer allows viewing and
editing of plain as well as annotated images in file formats, viz. TIFF, BMP, GIF,
JPEG and HTML documents. Transfer of image and annotation data between server
and client takes place through the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol.
Image operations such as Print, Zoom, Rotate, Negate, Flip (Vertical/Horizontal) etc.
can be effected directly on to the downloaded image through appropriate method
calls. OpAll Viewer ensures superior image quality, flicker-free panning and
dragging, independent of the viewing mode and state.
The user can view both image and non-image documents in the Newgen OmniDocs
Web application. The document properties, notes, and annotations attached with the
document are also displayed in this application.
To view any document, follow the following trace:
Select the document from the OmniDocs Web Desktop. The non-image documents
are invoked in the browser, and image documents are invoked in the OpAll Viewer.
In case OIVT is installed on the server machine, user is given an option to set his
own preferences in order to view the document.

NOTE: The annotations applied on the image document through the OmniDocs
Desktop are also visible in the OmniDocs Web

3.10 Document view in Full Text Search

3.10.1 Hit Highlighting


A user can perform full text search to determine the documents that contain specific
word(s) or phrase. The documents that contain those word(s) are then listed. The
user can then view the document.
Generally the user wants to see that part of the document, which contains the
specified word(s). The Hit-highlighting feature opens the image document and
highlights the specified words wherever they occur in the document. In case of
multiple pages initially, the first page that contains any of the specified word is
opened.

Full text search is a very powerful feature for retrieving documents. It is performed by
specifying a word within the document body to search for. All the documents that
contain that text are obtained. It is very useful in situations where the user is looking
for all the documents that pertain to some particular subject and are present in
different locations.

Fig: 3.129

Newgen OmniDocs 8.1 Reference Manual Page 739


Full text search feature is provided in the OmniDocs product for both the image and
non-image documents. The user can search for documents by specifying the words
that he is looking for in the document body. All the documents that contain that text
are identified and are then listed.

Fig: 3.130

The user specifies search criteria for full text search, the documents are searched
based on this criteria and the resultant document list is then displayed to the user.
The user can then view any of those documents.

Newgen OmniDocs 8.1 Reference Manual Page 740


Fig: 3.131

The first objective is to provide the user a mean to identify the exact location where
those words are present so that he does not have to look for them in the document.
We can do this by highlighting the searched words in the document. So whenever
the user views the document retrieved as a result of FTS, the document will be
displayed with the word on which search was done, coming highlighted, at all the
places where the word is present in the document.
The word may be present at multiple locations in the same page or in case of multi-
page document it may be present in different pages.
The second objective for the case of multi-page document is to allow him to navigate
to the next or previous page that contains that word.
We can do this by providing four toolbar buttons. Two for moving to the next or
previous location of the word in the same page and two for moving to the next or
previous page

Newgen OmniDocs 8.1 Reference Manual Page 741


The user can also traverse between the pages that contain the given word

Full Text Search – OD Web Desktop

User can even carry out the full text search using the OD Web Desktop. This they
can carry out by following the given steps:

Fig: 3.133

3.10.2 Ranking
When we search a document through full text search in search results we are
provided a column called rank in it. The rank indicates the frequency of no of
occurrences of the searched word, for e.g. if the rank for a document “A” is 10 and
the rank for a document “B” is 15 then it indicates the frequency of occurrence of
searched word is more in the document having rank as 15.

OmniProcess
OmniProcess is used in case of distributed scanning and centralized processing of
files wherein files constitutes documents for a business object like credit card
application, Loan Application, Insurance Policy, etc. The documents of a file are
uploaded through OmniScan in the first-look folder of a branch or a user and then
checker accepts/rejects a file by updating the file status and accepted files are then
available for access.
It provides a maker-checker scenario that allows creation of file, uploaded through
OmniScan with minimal indexing by the maker and QC, verification and processing
by the checker.

OmniProcess handles multi-user environment for processing file. While processing a


file, all the data and images for each transaction are displayed to processing users.
OmniProcess provides the user with features, such as searching, processing and
viewing the documents of a transaction. Users can also set their preferences like
dataclass indexes to be displayed in the search result list and they can also specify
the values for dataclass fields in form of pick list. It also supports configuration of
destination folder path for filing. It is mainly used in case of structured documents.

Features of OmniProcess:

 Access/search based on dataclass

 Users can set their preferences like dataclass indexes to be displayed in the
search result list.

 Support for administrator defined pick list in data class fields.

 If file is in use, no other user can use that file unless it gets free from the first
user.
