Line removal will detect horizontal and/or vertical lines and then remove them. Works with monochrome images only.

 

Filter:

Processing on page

Perform this function on ...       

  • Both sides
  • Front pages
  • Rear pages

 

Ignore blank pages

Turns this function off, for all blank pages.

Line removal:

Maximum skew

Specifies the maximum angle of rotation allowed. If skewed beyond this value, lines will not be removed.

 

Maximum gap within line

Specifies the maximum gap length (in mm) allowed. If they contain longer gaps, lines will not be removed.

 

Minimum length

Specifies the minimum line length (in mm) allowed. If lines are shorter than this, they will not be removed.

 

Maximum strength

Specifies the maximum line width (in mm) allowed.  If lines are wider than this, they will not be removed.

 

Minimum strength

Specifies the minimum line width (in mm) allowed. If lines are narrower than this, they will not be removed.

 

Remove horizontal lines

Restricts Line removal to horizontal lines. 

 

Remove vertical lines

Restricts Line removal to vertical lines.

 

Repair letters

If this option is set to On, CROSSCAP will attempt to fix letters and numerals which were damaged during line removal. Aimed to improve readability and subsequent text recognition.

 

Output:

Switched on

Switches this module on or off. Turning this function off will preserve all settings, for later use (as opposed to removing the function). Useful when developing or troubleshooting project templates.

 

Image processing on server (CROSSCAP Enterprise only)

Image processing requires substantial amounts of CPU capacity. In order to relieve CROSSCAP Scan-Clients from this task and speed up all other processing, image processing functions may be selectively transferred to the CROSSCAP Enterprise server.

If this option is activated (On), then execution of this function will be deferred and processed by the CROSSCAP Enterprise server, later on. Deferred image processing will occur during the pre-process workflow step (see chapter Enterprise Server, section System workflow Enterprise).

 

(* This image processing function is also available during export. Use if one or more export formats need to be modified selectively.)
