Pattern-Based Separation is a Separation Provider that creates a new document folder every time a value returned by a defined pattern is encountered on a page.

About

The Pattern-Based Separation Provider separates documents based on whether or not a defined pattern returns a value from a page in your Batch.

A Data Extractor is used to find a value on a page. When the extractor returns a result on a page, the page is placed in a new folder, creating a new document. If the extractor does not return a result on the following page, that page is included behind the previous page in the newly created folder. Once the extractor does produce a result on a subsequent page (even if it is the same result as the previous page) it will be placed in a new folder, creating a new document.
