Picture and badging

The picture and badging feature allows you to adjust the image and signature quality for use with the Badging feature.

  • Unchecking Use JPEG format for pictures, signatures and badges tells the system to save pictures (or signatures) in a tiff format.
    Note: Remember that this may affect the image quality. If you are not an advanced user, leave these values to default.
  • The User picture, Signature, Badge background and Badge picture indicate the quality of the image that is saved. If you choose 10, the saved image quality will be poor; 100 indicates an excellent quality.
  • Select the location of the Picture (Signature) transparent colour position for pictures and signature. Four choices are available (top-right, top-left, bottom-right and bottom-left). By default, the system chooses the bottom left-hand corner for the transparent background colour. EntraPass allows operators to choose a more suitable colour.
  • When checking the Save card pictures and signatures in a file box, the system creates Picture and Signature directories under C:\Program Files\Kantech\Server_CE\Data where all pictures and signatures will be saved instead of directly in the database.
  • When checking the Save visitor pictures and signatures in a file box, the system creates Picture and Signature directories under C:\Program Files\Kantech\Server_CE\Data where all visitor pictures and signatures are saved instead of directly in the database.
    Note: When modifying an existing picture or signature, EntraPass saves it to the appropriate file and delete the corresponding entry in the database.
