In addition to organizing, reviewing, and distributing information as an
e-mail message or fax, you may want to edit scanned text. To do this, you
can use the PaperPort software and the supplied OCR software along
with any text-based software, such as a word processing or spreadsheet
application. You can process an entire item or only the text you select.
You can process text in several ways:
• Use a text-based link application, such as a word processing or spreadsheet
link. This type of link works directly with the provided OCR software to
convert the text and open it in the link application.
• Use another OCR link. The text is processed and opened in the OCR
application. When you use a different OCR application, you send the
item to the OCR link and the file is converted to a TIFF file and
processed by the OCR software. After the OCR software becomes
active, you can use it as you usually do.
• Use the Copy as Text command. The entire item or the selected text is
processed and pasted to the Clipboard.
When you use a word processing link (or any text-based link), the
PaperPort software uses its supplied OCR software to convert the
PaperPort item into editable text, and then opens the converted item in
the selected word processing application. There are two sets of preferences
you can adjust:
• OCR preferences
• The word processing (or other text-based) application preferences
