PaperPort Getting Started Guide 14
You can use any flavor of PDF file: PDF Image, PDF Searchable, and PDF
Formatted Text and Graphics (PDF Normal) with PaperPort. PDF files by
default open in PDF Viewer Plus or (if available) PDF Converter
Professional. These Nuance programs are optimized for handling, annotating
and editing PDF files. Go to Options > Desktop to change this behavior.
You can open PDF Image or PDF Searchable files in ImageViewer in order
to use the SET tools to improve the quality of PDF-image only items.
You can quickly send an item to another program without leaving the
PaperPort program. Just drag an item onto the link icon in the Send To bar at
the bottom of the desktop. PaperPort supports a wide variety of programs
including word processing, spreadsheet, fax, Internet e-mail, graphics, optical
character recognition (OCR), and online services programs.
PaperPort includes a
My PaperPort Documents folder with a subfolder
Samples , containing items to demonstrate some of the types of items you
can keep on the PaperPort desktop.
You can also use PaperPort to view non-PaperPort items that reside on your
computer. Simply copy or move the document file or photo into a PaperPort
folder.
The Folders pane
The Folders pane presents a hierarchical view of your
PaperPort folders, similar to the view you see in Windows
Explorer. Use the Folder Tools to access its commands
quickly.
PaperPort installs a PaperPort folder named
My
PaperPort Documents into your My Documents folder.
If you are using a multi-user system, each user has their
own My PaperPort Documents folder.
The My PaperPort Documents folder contains several subfolders whose
names –such as Articles, Business Cards, Photographs, and Receipts –
illustrate the different ways you can organize your items in PaperPort.
The Samples folder contains sample documents and photographs to help you
get started using PaperPort.
