2.90:Separation Review
Separation uses various techniques to group pages into classified documents.
About Separation and Separation Review
Grooper uses various approaches and algorithms to determine the classification of a page or folder. The various settings on a Content Model and Document Type really add to the complexities for separating pages into documents. ESP Auto Separation removes but does not eliminate a lot of the manual work to separate and classify documents. Separation Review is a new review module designed to make the manual work quick and easy.

Separation Review
Grooper 2.8 Classification Review
Grooper 2.8 and previous versions relied on Classification Review with its various controls to separate loose pages, merge selected pages into documents, and correct misclassified folders or classify unclassified folders. This user interface required a moderate-to-large effort to complete classification and separation, especially when reverting one or more folders to loose pages in order to combine the same pages into separate documents and classifying each newly created document.
Grooper 2.9 Separation Review
Starting with Grooper 2.9, Separation Review replaces Classification Review, which will also still be available for legacy support or other use cases. Don’t be concerned about this being a new module. Slap the name “Classification Review 2.0” on Separation Review because Separation Review really is a true upgrade and efficiently redesigned approach of Classification Review. Consider it a godsend!
The design of Separation Review invites the heavy use of the keyboard and keyboard shortcuts to make quick work of any items needing corrective action. Many quality-of-life improvements now exist and are quickly realized if one has previous experience using Classification Review.
Even though this is Separation Review, some classification tasks take place in this module. In the How-To section, items in the list are color coded. The list shows current classification of the items. This doesn’t necessarily mean they are currently separated into documents. The actual separation occurs later. During use of Separation Review, using the various context menu commands will assist and ensure pages are classified correctly and ready for proper separation.
