When specifying a relative search area for elements or generating element relations, the offset value for the search area is defined. You can then correct relations offsets based on the reference layout of the selected pages. Offsets are calculated for all enabled relations with non-recurring elements.

Prerequisites for offset correction

  • The Reference layout must contain elements for which relations offsets are to be corrected.
  • All pages to be included in the training set must be marked as Use for Training on the Batch tab.
