Punch hole removal *
CROSSCAP Manual > Project settings > Image processing > Punch hole removal *

Punch hole removal will detect any smudges or shadows caused by punch holes and then remove them. Works with monochrome images only.

 

 

Filter:

Processing on page

Perform this function on ...       

  • Both sides
  • Front pages
  • Rear pages

 

Ignore monochrome pages, Ignore gray scale pages, Ignore color pages

Specifically applies to multistream mode. If any of these three filters are set to On, punch hole removal is turned off for the respective page types. Please note that grayscale and color pages are permanently turned off, by default, since this function will only perform on black & white images.

 

Ignore blank pages

Turns this function off, for all blank pages.

 

Ignore first document page

Causes this function to skip the first page of every document (which usually is the page triggering document separation).

 

Ignore cover pages

Turns this function off, for cover pages.

 

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).

 

Punch hole removal:

Distance to text body

The minimum distance from the text body (in mm) beyond which punch holes will be removed.

 

Minimum size

The smallest diameter (in mm) above which a hole will be considered a punch hole and removed.

 

Maximum size

The largest diameter (in mm) below which a hole will be considered a punch hole and removed.

 

Left edge

Detect punch holes at the left margin only.

 

Right edge

Detect punch holes at the right margin only.

 

Top edge

Detect punch holes at the top margin only.

 

Bottom edge
