About
Separation Providers establish the logic used to create "separation points" between loose pages. Each Separation Provider has its own criteria for determining where these separation points occur within a Batch. However, the basic operation is same for all of them.
- Determine what page is the first page of a document.
- This is the "separation point".
- Generally, the first page in a Batch is always the first separation point.
- Insert a Batch Folder into the Batch.
- Move pages into that folder until another first page of a document is encountered.
- Insert a new Batch Folder into the Batch
- This is the next "separation point".
- Move pages into that folder until another first page of a document is encountered.
- Repeat until the end of the Batch.
