Scan date and Time embedded on image

I have a customer that would like the Date Stored and Time stored burned on the image of all there scanned documents. I know I can add a note through workflow to do this but I actually need it burned onto the image.  Anyone ever do this?

Thanks

Hi Todd,

You can use the scan queue Image Processing option process type "Annotate Images" to automatically apply an annotation to each image in the batch. A VB Script is required to use this (the Hyland SDK had additional information about creating the VB script).

Please let me know if you have any questions about this process.

Cheers,

Amanda

Hi Tood

I do not think there is anything build it to do this .  But you could do it with a small workflow and the unity api script.  Basically, your script would retrieve the first page.  Burn the date and time to  the tiff using .net drawing namespace methods then delete the existing first page and then add the revised first page.

Good Luck

Scott

Is this needed when the doc is printed? If so, in the Doc Type configuration, you can configure a Print Title under the doc type's View/Print button.

Or maybe ...
