METADATA DELIVERY (DATA ENTRY)
When the application integration module kit is installed, metadata (data indicating the attributes of the image file and
how it is to be processed) is generated based on pre-stored information and transmitted separately from an image file
that is generated for sending a scanned image. The metadata file is created in XML format.
By linking the metadata with applications such as document management software, a workflow application, or an
encryption server, a sophisticated document solution environment can be built.
Using the application integration module kit, information on a generated image file can be entered at the touch panel and
transmitted along with the image as an XML file.
