SCAN IT AND E-MAIL IT
If you can send e-mail from your computer, you can send any scanned
item as an e-mail attachment, including scanned pages, graphics, and
photos. You can use either the e-mail link icon or a convenient Send
command to attach an item to an e-mail message.
CONVERT SCANNED TEXT TO TEXT THAT YOU CAN EDIT
PaperPort can quickly convert the text on a scanned item, which is really
just a picture of the text, into text that you can edit with a word
processing application. PaperPort converts the text using either the
Visioneer OCR (optical character recognition )application that comes
with PaperPort, or your OCR application if its already on your
computer. You can convert the entire item, or using the Copy As Text
command, you can select only a portion of the text to convert.
