When the batch is ready for indexing, the application will index all pages from the batch as a single folder. However, you can index selected documents from this folder by enabling "Index selected" option in the settings dialog. The application will allow indexing a single file or a complete batch depending on the selection, especially if more than one file is selected for indexing, please consider the following example:

The application will only index one selected file out of the batch: "Service_Order.pdf". This is not applicable when "Index selected" is turned off.	In this case both files are indexed under the same indexing criteria and stored as a "folder".
