By default, if an input button is configured to scan documents, it is labeled Scan using: <Scanner Name>. If no scanner name is specified, it is labeled Scan using: Default TWAIN. And, if the input button is configured to create a document from an image template or to create an E-Form, it is labeled Template Form.

Users may find it more convenient if the input buttons are given more descriptive labels to help them understand which device, image template, or E-Form is associated with the input button.

To customize the label on an input button:

  1. In the Front Office Scanning configuration file, locate the DocTypes element and identify the DocType sub-element associated with the input button you are configuring.
  2. Within the DocType sub-element, locate the DisplayScanner setting. If this value is not present, add it to the DocType sub-element.
  3. Set the DisplayScanner setting to the text that you would like to label the input button with.

    For example: DisplayScanner="Driver's License Scanner" or DisplayScanner="Privacy Policy Form"

    Tip:

    If special characters are needed in the input button's label, be sure to use proper XML syntax.

    Tip:

    For more information on the DocType sub-element and its settings, including the DisplayScanner setting, see The DocTypes Element.

  4. Save and close the configuration file.
