2. From the File menu, choose Export.
3. Select the drive and directory where you want to save the item.
4. Select the file format from the Export Files of Type drop-down list.
If you want to export the item as a PaperPort file, select PaperPort
Files (*.MAX) from the list.
If you export a PaperPort item in any format other than a PaperPort
(.MAX) file, annotations in that file cannot be edited, deleted, or
moved. If the annotations are hidden, they are not exported.
5. Type the name of the file in the File Name box.
▼
NOTE: If you don’t type a name for the file, PaperPort uses the item’s
title. If the title is longer than eight characters, PaperPort uses only the
first eight characters of the title. For example, if the item’s title is
Update Memo, its file name will be UPDATEME.MAX.
6. Click OK.

NOTE: PaperPort items exported as BMP or TIFF files can be as
much as 10 times larger than the original PaperPort items. If you have
an application that compresses files, you may want to compress the
exported files before saving them on a floppy disk.
