COLD/READ
COLD/READ Archiving Spool Data
In companies, large volumes of documents and journals are output to a printer. COLD/READ transfers the spool files this creates for archiving in DocuWare 5. The documents contained in these files can be displayed true to their original format, given annotations and stamps, and then printed out.
Description 
Functionality
DocuWare COLD/READ runs as an autonomous process on a workstation
PC or server that has access to both the spool data and the DocuWare file
cabinets. The import process is triggered manually, by a specific event or
at a designated time, e.g. at night. The classification criteria for the storage
is read from the data using the customization specifically defined for the
spool data.

DocuWare converts the spool data either to a special DocuWare format (CL5 file) or to TIFF format. In the second case, a TIFF document is created for each document contained in a spool file. This is more space-intensive, but it allows you to add annotations and stamps to the documents. It also means the documents can be integrated in workflows controlled by stamps.

 v   The classification criteria are entered in the file cabinet database and the converted spool data is stored in the file cabinet. If the file cabinet is set up for
full-text retrieval, DocuWare creates the full-text index from the document
contents.

Spool data is often printed on forms or integrated in electronic forms. When
converted to CL5 format, these forms are not archived with each document,
but saved once as TIFF files, then displayed later in the documents as
electronic overlays.

Once imported, documents are immediately available for retrieval. Simply enter a search word, such as a customer name or date, files, to receive a list of all the documents found. Documents captured with COLD/READ are listed along with all other documents, files and e-mail that match the search query. In addition, the document text can be searched for any word or value.

To display the documents contained in the CL5 file, DocuWare offers text mode, which displays only the raw data, or image mode, for displaying the
formatted user data with a scanned form overlay. In this view, a document
can also be printed out true to the original or sent by fax, like a document
converted to TIFF format. Documents can be retrieved and displayed either
from the DocuWare 5 Windows client or via the Internet/intranet using
DocuWare INTERNET SERVER and a browser. And for archiving out-of-date
documents, DocuWare provides the option to transfer these to CD, DVD or
other data medium in a tamper-proof format, along with the search database
and retrieval module.
