Sending Items to Other Programs
With PaperPort, it is simple to set up a shared folder on a server or a PC that can
act as a central repository for all important office documents. Each PaperPort
client can connect to that folder and use PaperPort’s document management
features and paper handling tools to find and use documents instantly.
In addition, you can convert items to popular output formats for shared use in
numerous other programs, such as Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat, Claris
HomePage, and Adobe Photoshop. To obtain a list of all supported program
links, visit PaperPort at the ScanSoft web site at www.scansoft.com.
Sending Items to Other Programs
Drag and drop functionality makes opening your files in your favorite programs
a snap. Simply choose the file you want and drop it onto the program icon on the
Send To bar at the bottom of the PaperPort desktop.
Common office tasks like e-mailing and faxing are now faster than ever. The
Send To bar makes using scanned documents in other applications easier by
automatically translating the document into a form that the receiving application
can understand.
For example, you can drop a scanned image of a letter onto the Microsoft Word
link on the PaperPort Send To bar, and PaperPort will recognize that the
application you are attempting to open needs a text file rather than an image file.
PaperPort will run OCR for you, and send editable text to Word rather than a
static image file.
