Vertical Wrap Detection

Grooper Object Grooper.Extract

Configures detection of text segments that wrap vertically, enabling extraction of multi-line labels or values split across lines.

Remarks

The Vertical Wrap Detection class enables extraction of search terms or values that are split across multiple lines in a vertical arrangement. This is especially useful for multi-word labels or values that may be wrapped due to document formatting, such as table headers or stacked field names.

For example, this option allows the extractor to find the search term "Purchase Order Number" in any of the following layouts:

  • The extractor groups vertically adjacent text segments that meet the alignment and spacing criteria defined by the properties below.
  • The combined text is compared to the set of search terms or values, allowing matches that span multiple lines.
  • You can control which segments are grouped by adjusting the maximum line spacing, alignment, and whether horizontal or vertical rules are allowed between lines.

Usage Guidance

  • Use Vertical Wrap Detection when extracting multi-line labels, table headers, or any field that may be split vertically.
  • Adjust the 'Maximum Line Spacing', 'Alignment', and 'Alignment Tolerance' properties to fine-tune which lines are grouped.
  • Enable or disable 'Allow Horizontal Rule' and 'Allow Vertical Rule' to control how lines separated by graphical elements are handled.
