Organizing Your Items in Folders

PaperPort

®

has an easy-to-use filing system for organizing your items. The filing system consists of

folders and items that you select to view in Desktop View. An item can be a PaperPort

®

item or a

non-PaperPort

®

item:

■ Folders are arranged in a “tree” structure in the Folder View. You use this pane to select folders

and view their items in Desktop View.

■ You can simply drag and drop an item onto a folder. When the folder is highlighted, release the

mouse button and the item is stored in that folder.

■ Folders can be “nested”—that is, stored in other folders.
■ When you double-click a folder, its items (both PaperPort

®

MAX files and other files) appear

on the Desktop.

■ You can also use Windows

®

Explorer to manage the folders and items shown in Desktop View.

Links to Many Other Applications

PaperPort

®

automatically recognizes many other applications on your computer and creates a

“working link” to them. The Link Bar at the bottom of Desktop view shows icons of those linked
applications. To use a link, drag an item onto one of the icons to start the application represented by
the icon. This sample Link Bar shows several applications with links to PaperPort

®

.

If PaperPort

®

does not automatically recognize one of the applications on your computer, you can

manually create a link using the Create New Link command. (See PaperPort

®

Help for more

information about creating new links.)
