7. Settings and rules

From the [Settings] button in the header, you can open the [Settings] dialog. Here, you edit each user's personal overrides (those items of the Master rules for which overriding is permitted).

Master rules and personal overrides: Behavior such as extraction, checking, and saving is applied as the "effective rules," which merge the organization-wide Master rules with each user's overrides. Even when the Master rules are updated, the personal overrides are retained. Items you customized personally are marked, and you can restore them to the default with [Restore].

7.1 Load rules

Settings related to the targets and exclusions for document scanning, and to detection patterns other than the abbreviation dictionary.

Setting	Contents
Perform pattern matching	In addition to detection by the abbreviation dictionary, enables detection by regular-expression patterns.
Matching (regex) / Exclusion (regex)	The regular-expression patterns of abbreviations to detect or to exclude. You can specify multiple with [+ Add pattern].
Exclusion styles	The paragraph style names to exclude from scanning (specified comma-separated).

7.2 Check rules

Settings for what the full-term check inspects.

Setting	Contents
Check whether full term matches the dictionary	Inspects whether the full term in the body matches the abbreviation dictionary.
Check spelled-out full term occurrence count	Inspects the number of times the full term is written (detecting duplicates).
Check spelled-out full term position	Inspects whether the full term is written at its first occurrence.
Check passages where only the full term appears	Inspects passages where only the full term, without the abbreviation, is written (choose from "No check," "English only," "Japanese only," or "Either English or Japanese").
Check abbreviation usage count	Inspects the usage count of the abbreviation.
Detection threshold	The threshold for the usage-count check. The default is 1 (an abbreviation written only once).

How the threshold behaves: The threshold controls the detection range for the red warnings and the repair issues. Separately, the behavior of automatically unchecking, at load time, an item used as an abbreviation only once does not depend on the threshold value and applies only to "exactly one use" (even if the threshold is 2, an item used once is unchecked, while one used twice is kept).
