Blank Page Remover
Return to Main Site
Blank Page Remover from eDocFile, is a utility that is designed for post processing of tiff images. It is ideally suited for use with a copier that scans tiff images to a file folder on the user's network. The program will monitor a folder and when it finds a tiff image file it will silently open this file remove the blank pages and send the file to a printer. This gives the user the ability to copy a mixture of simplex and duplex pages without wasting paper.
Once the page is printed the processed file can also be saved as either a tiff image or PDF.
Begin by opening the program and clicking on "Setup"

The setup menu will open

1. Select the Printer to use (if normally printing is done in a simplex manner and duplex is to be used copy the printer and create one where duplex is the default)
2. Browse to or enter the folder that will contain the incoming tiff images from the copier.
3. Place a check in "Disable Monitor Function" if the program is to be run once and then exited.
4. Enter a number for sensitivity. Usually this will be between 2 and 3. The scale relates to the percentage of black pixels on the page. Where 1 is 1/10 of one percent. Only testing on your own documents will allow this to be set correctly. An example for testing would be to type a 2 or three letter word on a page. And see when it is included or dropped.
5. Select what to do with the original file (this is the processed file, the actual file from the copier is automatically deleted.
6. Browse to or enter the folder to be used if saving the original file.
7. Enter a time in seconds to check the folder for new images.
