<EM>&gt; I agree that for the vast majority of scanning applications, scanning until
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the ADF is empty is exactly what the user wants. However, there are common
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; variations...
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; In the production scanning world, group of pages to be scanned are sometimes
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; interspersed with separator pages on which information about what to do with
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the group of pages is encoded. The scanners can actually decode the separators
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; and process the group accordingly.
</EM><BR>
<P>And sometimes the document itself has a barcode on it that holds a key piece of
<BR>
information which lets you know how to &quot;index&quot; the information into a database.
<BR>
<P>In each case, there needs to be a way to get this information from the decoder
<BR>
(in the backend) to the indexer (in the frontend). The way that I do that with
<BR>
scanadf and the Bell+Howell is with a TEXT frame type. Instead of getting image
<BR>
data, you get an xml encoded text that has all the info the the decoder wishes
<BR>
to send. Then the indexer parses it and does what it might, such as changing
<BR>
pagination and/or document numbering or assigning a keyword to the image(s) for
<BR>
storage in a database.
