8 VISIONEER VISUAL EXPLORER GETTING STARTED GUIDE
FAXING OR E-MAILING AN ITEM
The Visual Explorer software is designed to work with—or link to—
other types of applications. To send items to other applications, you use
the Link Bar. The Link Bar automatically displays link icons for
applications installed on your computer and supported by the
Visual Explorer software, such as electronic fax or e-mail applications.
After an item is displayed in Desktop View, you can send it as a fax, or as
an attachment to an e-mail message, by using the Link Bar. You do not
need to print the item first; you can send it directly from
Visual Explorer.
To fax an item, your computer must have a fax modem and fax software.
To attach an item to an e-mail message, you need an e-mail account and
e-mail software.
Note: You can change the link application preferences by choosing
Link Preferences from the Edit menu. For more information, see the
Visual Explorer User’s Guide and Help.
