When you double-click a folder, its contents (both PaperPort™ 11SE MAX files and non PaperPort™
11SE files) appear on the Desktop.
„ You can also use Windows

Quick links to other applications
2
ScanSoft™ PaperPort™ 11SE automatically recognizes many other applications on your PC and creates a
‘working link’ to them.
The bar at the bottom of the PaperPort™ 11SE desktop shows which programs you can use with PaperPort™
11SE.
To send an item from PaperPort™ 11SE to another program, simply drag and drop the item from the
PaperPort™ 11SE desktop to the program icon on the Send To bar. PaperPort™ 11SE automatically
converts the item to the preferred format.
If PaperPort™ 11SE does not automatically recognize one of the applications on your PC, you can manually
create a link using the
New Program Link command.
ScanSoft™ PaperPort™ 11SE with OCR lets you convert image text into text
you can edit
2
ScanSoft™ PaperPort™ 11SE can quickly convert a text document image into text that you can edit with a
word processing application.
PaperPort™ 11SE uses the optical character recognition software (OCR), which comes with PaperPort™
11SE. PaperPort™ 11SE can use your preferred OCR application if it is already on your PC. You can convert
the entire item, or by using the
Copy Text command, you can choose only a portion of the text to convert.
Dragging an item onto a word-processing link icon starts PaperPort™ 11SE’s built-in OCR application, or you
can use your own OCR application.
Importing items from other applications
2
As well as scanning items, you can bring items into PaperPort™ 11SE in a variety of ways and convert them
to PaperPort™ 11SE (MAX) files in several different ways:
„ Print to the Desktop View from another application, such as Microsoft
®
Excel.
„ Import files saved in other file formats, such as Windows
®
Bitmap (BMP) or Tagged Image File Format
(TIFF).
