PaperPort Getting Started Guide 23
Using PaperPort’s annotation tools, you can add notes and text, highlight text, 
draw lines and arrows, or stamp a picture onto an image item.
It is easy to send a document with annotations to people without PaperPort by 
using the PDF Image format. The recipient only has to double click on the 
e-mail attachment they receive from you and they will see the document in 
Adobe Acrobat – annotations intact.
Annotation tools
You can select an annotation tool from the Annotation toolbar whenever you 
display an image item in the Page View window. Right-click on a tool to choose 
settings for the annotation.
Select 
Annotation 
Use this tool to select an annotation so that you can then 
move, cut, copy, or resize it on the page.
Note Want to give yourself a reminder? Select the Note tool and 
add a resizable note much like a sticky note that you write on 
and then stick on paper documents.
Text  Adding a text label to your images is simple with the Tex t 
tool. Select this tool to add a line of text with a transparent 
background. 
Highlighter Use the Highlighter tool to highlight any area of the image, 
just as you might use a highlighting pen on paper.
Pencil The Pencil tool lets you draw freehand lines or marks on the 
page.
Arrow or 
Line 
Select the Arrow or Line tool to draw straight lines, with or 
without arrowheads, on a page. 
Stamp The Stamp tool lets you paste the bitmapped image of your 
choice on the page, much like using a rubber stamp.
