Quick Links to 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. A typical use of
the Link Bar is to select an item and then fax it.

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.)
