Trustee Attributes: Disable 'Generate searchable text'

Laserfiche Administration
Updated May 10, 2022
asked on March 1, 2018

Hi All,

After reviewing the Administration Guide and relevant white paper, I cannot find the trustee attribute that corresponds to the 'Generate searchable text' checkbox pictured here:

Can someone tell me the name/values of this attribute (assuming it exists)?

Thanks,

Rob

This is controlled by the [Settings]MImportFlags attribute, which has three bit flags: 

OCR: 0x4

Index: 0x8

Line breaks: 0x20

Set this attribute to 8 to keep index enabled while disabling OCR.

Hi Robert,

This is great, thank you for the information. I noticed when I went to set [MImportFlags] that it already had a value of 10. Out of curiosity, where is this number coming from?

I noticed that when I'd click the 'Generate searchable text' check box, save, and check the Admin Console, the [MImportFlags] value changed to 14, which I understand based on your reply above. However, when I change the value to 8 in the Admin Console, then log back into the repository and check the setting under Tools->Options, the checkbox is still checked. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

Rob

The other two flags are 1 (Make each file into a separate document) and 2 (Combine images into a single document). I tried setting it to 8 in my attributes and the checkbox was unchecked after restarting the client.

Ah, that's what I was missing--relaunching the client. I was logging out/in, which explains why I wasn't seeing changes to the checkbox. After exiting and relaunching, the checkbox state reflected the attribute's value.

Thanks a lot for your help with this, this will be very helpful for me moving forward, as clients regularly either want to turn OCR off or on by default across their entire organization, and this is a much faster way to accomplish either of those goals than the alternatives.

Robert,  As you can see from below the version 10 admin guide needs clean up in regards to this topic.

 

[Settings]MImportFlags

Specifies options for handling pages and text when importing documents. If you choose to split text into multiple pages, specify the number of lines per page using [Settings]MImportBreak.

Valid values:

  • Integers representing an enumerated type with a flags attribute. 1 = Split text into multiple pages, 4 = OCR, 8 = Index text, 20 = Split text into multiple pages, 40 = Convert electronic file pages into TIFFs.

Default value: 12 (OCR and index text)
