2023.1:EPI Separation (Separation Provider)

STUB	This article is a stub. It contains minimal information on the topic and should be expanded.

The EPI Separation provider uses embedded page information ("EPI") to separate loose pages into document folders.

For this Separation Proivder, a Data Extractor is used to find page numbers from the text on a page (i.e. "Page 1 of 10"). The extractor must also define two groups "PageNo" and "PageCount" in its regular expression pattern. The pattern "Page (?<PageNo>\d+) of (?<PageCount>\d+)" would group the "1" and "10" of our earlier example properly). If the value of PageNo is 1, a new folder is created. As long as each subsequent page's PageNo value follows in sequence, they are included in the folder. If the page is out of sequence (or the extractor fails to produce a result), it is left as a loose page.
