P.6 2018 © CARDIMAGING MINIMANUAL Starting This chapter explains how to handle a document, model or template, how to create or open an existing file and also how to recover a backup file. Document - Contains all data related to your work, including chosen model or template, all objects, database connections, properties, encoding properties. In sum, all the properties involved in your card document creation. Model - Contains all the features and shape of your physical card. These features are size and card type, if it is a basic card, contactless, magnetic or smartcard. Please notice that the card settings depends on your chosen or created model type. For instance, you can’t access the chip encoding settings if you’ve chosen or created a card without SmartCard capabilities. Template - Is no more then a pre-made document layout used to create a new document with a similar design, pattern, or style. This means that you can use an existing template as it is or you can change it as you wish, creating a new document or template from the opened template. Backup - CARDIMAGING automatically generates a backup file of your document every time it’s saved. This backup is created on the default folder (‘\My Cards\Backups’) with the document name and date/time creation. This document can be recovered any time you need. Example: documentname(yyyymmddThhmmss).cardBackup 2.1 - Using Models CARDIMAGING allows you to create a document in two different ways, by using an exist- ing model or by creating your own card model. The first one only requires you to choose one of the many different type of models that CARDIMAGING has at your disposal. 2018 © CARDIMAGING P.7 But if you have one specific type of card model that is not listed,CARDIMAGING allows you to create it and that’s the other way to create a document, using a new card model. Note that whichever model you choose, will restrict access to the features of that mod- el. If you open a “Contact Smart Card”, the result will be a model of your “Contact Smart Card”, where you can only edit Smart Card Settings, and it will not allow you to access, for instance, RFID settings. 2.1.1 - Create a New Card This topic guides you on how to create a new document using an existing model. You can start a creation procedure by clicking on the create button on the “Welcome View”. ‘Welcome View’ ‘Click Create’ Or ‘Click File’ menu ‘New’ ( CRTL+N ) P.8 2018 © CARDIMAGING Then choose the type of model you want. The model types are organized in 8 groups: Basic card models, have no contacts, no microprocessors or internal memory. Simple piece of plastic that you can print in front and back side.
