  2. Scroll through the list to find the image file.
  3. When found, click the file Name. The image will appear in the Preview pane.

Thumbnails
When you choose to show thumbnails, a side panel on the Batch Viewer displays thumbnail pictures of the previous image and the next two images. It also provides Inquiry/Note fields similar to those on the Route for Inquiry dialog box.
The top inquiry field is meant for a short one-line note.
The bottom note field allows you type a longer, freeform note. Together these fields will populate the Remarks field on a Spitfire document if you attach this image to a document.
The Inquiry/Notes fields will not store information in the Batch Viewer itself. Once you move on to another image, the fields will clear.

Auto Accept vs. Manual Route Mode

You can set and quickly change the route mode for Spitfire documents created during your Batch Viewer workflow. The route mode determines how the Spitfire documents will start their routes. In all cases, sfPMS will expect to use a predefined route (as established on the Manage Dashboard).
While Auto Accept Route mode is on, documents will start their routes with the Seq 2 routees defined on the automated route. These documents will not be included in your Inbox.
While Manual Route mode is on, documents will remain at Seq 1 and appear on your Inbox until you manually send the document to the next routee. Also, the document will open when it is created during the workflow.
The icon appearing on the toolbar tells you which mode is currently active.
