Sending Items to Other Programs
Drag and drop functionality makes opening your files in your favorite programs
a snap. Simply choose the file you want and drop it onto the program icon on the
Send To bar at the bottom of the PaperPort desktop.
Common office tasks like e-mailing and faxing are now faster than ever. The
Send To bar makes using scanned documents in other applications easier by
automatically translating the document into a form that the receiving application
can understand.
For example, you can drop a scanned image of a letter onto the Microsoft Word
link on the PaperPort Send To bar, and PaperPort will recognize that the
application you are attempting to open needs a text file rather than an image file.
PaperPort will run OCR for you, and send editable text to Word rather than a
static image file.
PaperPort supports a wide variety of programs including word processing,
spreadsheet, fax, Internet e-mail, graphics, optical character recognition (OCR),
and online services programs.
Icons in the Send To bar identify the programs to which you can send your
PaperPort items. These programs are often referred to as linked programs. The
program link on the Send To bar does any necessary conversion and may provide
options for sending the item.
