IMPORT ITEMS FROM OTHER APPLICATIONS
In addition to scanning items, you can bring items into PaperPort in
several different ways:
Print to the PaperPort Desktop from another application, such as
Microsoft Excel.
Print to the PaperPort Desktop from the Internet, so you can display
images and text from Internet Web sites on the PaperPort Desktop.
Import files saved in other file formats, such as Windows Bitmap
(BMP) or Tag Image File Format (TIFF).
Drag and drop an image file onto the PaperPort folder in Windows
Explorer and convert the file to a PaperPort item.
Drag and drop an image file onto the PaperPort icon on the Windows
desktop.
EXPORT ITEMS IN OTHER FORMATS
You can export or save PaperPort items in several popular file formats,
such as BMP, GIF, or TIFF. For example, to create a file for an Internet
Web site, export it as a GIF file. Web pages often use GIF files for
displaying images.
VIEW PAPERPORT ITEMS ON OTHER COMPUTERS
PaperPort Viewer, a separate application, comes with PaperPort and lets
others view PaperPort items without PaperPort. PaperPort Viewer is
available for free on the Visioneer Web site at http://www.visioneer.com.
You can also send PaperPort Viewer to someone else by attaching it to an
e-mail message.
