(MAX) files in several
different ways:
■
Print to the Desktop View from another application, such as Microsoft
Excel.
■
Import files saved in other file formats, such as Windows
®
Bitmap (BMP)
or Tag Image File Format (TIFF).
Exporting Items in Other Formats
You can export or save PaperPort
®
items in several popular file formats,
such as BMP, JPEG, TIFF, or self-viewing. For example, to create a file

JPEG files for displaying images.

TWAIN COMPLIANT
The Brother scanner driver is TWAIN compliant and meets the standard
universal protocol for communicating between scanners and software
applications. This means that not only can you scan images directly into
the PaperPort
®
viewer that Brother included with your copier/printer, but
you can also scan images directly into hundreds of other software
applications that support TWAIN scanning. These applications include
popular programs like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe PageMaker, CorelDraw
and many more.
To choose Brother MFL Pro Scanner driver as your scanner driver,
select it under the Select scanner—OR—Select source option in your
software.
