You can also drag and drop a spreadsheet onto a Spreadsheet icon. In that
case, the OCR software converts the numbers and text, then opens the
spreadsheet application. In most cases, the column-by-column structure
of the original spreadsheet is maintained with the converted numbers and
text. To learn more about using the OCR link, see Chapter 8, “Using
PaperPort Links.”

With PaperPort, you can scan pictures of your kids, the family dog, office
mates, real estate, special events, and even magazine advertisements. For
example, you could scan a photograph of a family member, attach it to an
e-mail message, and mail the image to a coworker.
Before scanning the photograph, select the Photograph mode in the
PaperPort Scan Settings.
To scan a photo:
1. Click the Settings button on the Command Bar, or from the Edit
menu, choose Preferences and click the Scanner button. The
PaperPort Scan Settings dialog box appears.
