When indexing a record that has multiple pages of the same person, can we index full information on each image based on information from the other images in the batch? Or do we still only index what is on the individual image? here's a batch where the first 3 images all contain information about the same person and are all in the same batch:

    The project instructions say: There may be many images relating to the same person; index each image separately. So, I think you have to index each image separately filling in the fields that apply to that image.

    likewise, the 4th image in this batch has information about a different person. when the next batch comes up with his information in the next 4 images, can information be used from the one image that is contained in this different batch?
