CHAPTER 6
Using Links
You can send an item from PaperPort to another application by using a
PaperPort link. PaperPort automatically displays icons for linked
applications on the Link Bar. The Link Bar shows such applications as
word processing, spreadsheet, electronic fax, e-mail, graphics, OCR, and
online services on the Link Bar.
The following figure shows a sample Link Bar in PaperPort:

THE BASIC STEPS FOR USING LINKS
When you send an item to a linked application, PaperPort processes the
item, the application starts, and the item appears in the application. For
example, if you send the item to the word-processing link, PaperPort’s
OCR software converts the item to text and displays the item as text in
the word-processing software.
