Filing Items

Filing Items

A key to organizing items in PaperPort is filing items in appropriate folders. You 
can drag and drop items from one folder to another or from the PaperPort 
desktop into any folder you want. You can specify search criteria to help you find 
your items later. Moving and copying items between folders is also possible in 
split view across Workspaces. The name of each item appears below the 
thumbnail in thumbnail view. In a multi-page item, the name appears below the 
individual page names.

Using the Folder Manager dialog box, you can add, remove, move, and rename 
PaperPort folders. You can change the color of a folder icon to one that helps you 
organize your items. You may also add, remove, move, and rename any folder in 
Windows Explorer that is viewed with the PaperPort folder structure. These 
changes will be automatically reflected in PaperPort.

In the Folders pane, you can drag and drop, copy or move subfolders and their 
content to other subfolders or PaperPort folders, create subfolders, and delete 
subfolders. Sharing and Security, and DesktopDelivery adjustments can also be 
directly made for each folder shortcut menu. 

The 

Back

 button makes it easy to step through the ordered history of folders you 

recently visited one by one – functioning similarly to Internet Explorer – 
enhancing quick backward navigation for both Workspaces independently of 
each other.
