PageKeeper Features
PageKeeper is designed to help you easily organize, find, and use all the
documents on your computer. This section provides an overview of
PageKeeper’s major features.
Scanning and Managing Paper Documents
Scan paper documents directly into PageKeeper and organize their
electronic images in PageKeeper’s folder system. PageKeeper uses OCR
technology to recognize text in scanned documents and other image
documents so you can easily find documents by searching for words in
their content. See “Scanning Documents into PageKeeper” on page 41
for more information.
Managing Word-Processing Files and Other Documents
Add word-processing files, spreadsheet files, and any other computer
documents to PageKeeper’s folder system. PageKeeper uses advanced
indexing technology to keep track of each document’s content so you
can easily find documents by searching for words and other criteria. See
“Adding Existing Documents to PageKeeper” on page 44 for more
information.
Watching Folders for New Documents to Manage
Use the Folder Watch
™
feature to specify folders on your computer’s
hard drive and network drives that you want PageKeeper to watch. As
PageKeeper detects documents, it automatically adds them to its default
folder. See “Adding Documents Automatically with Folder Watch” on
page 45 for more information.
Capturing Web Pages
Add Web pages to PageKeeper’s folder system and maintain a live link
to their Web addresses. See “Adding Web Page Links to PageKeeper” on
page 47 for more information.
Displaying Thumbnail Representations of Documents
PageKeeper provides thumbnail views of documents so you can easily
identify them as you look through PageKeeper’s folder system.
Organizing Documents into Folders and Clipped Groups
Create your own system of folders in which to arrange your documents.
You can also “clip” documents together to associate them in groups. See
“Organizing Documents” on page 49 for more information.
