● Other Programs – If you have other types of compatible
programs, such as image-editing or spreadsheet programs, links
are created for them. Then, you can use the icons to send
scanned (or faxed) items to those programs.
The links for functions always appear on the Manager toolbar.
However, the Manager toolbar only shows as many program links as
will fit. If you have more program links than what will fit, you can
decide which links appear. See the online help for information on
options for customizing the toolbar.
To use a link icon
All icons are easy to use. From the viewer, just click the icon on the
Manager toolbar for the function or program you want. From the
desktop, first select the item and then click the icon you want.
The task for that icon begins, or the program for that icon opens and
the selected item appears in an unnamed file.
Note From the desktop, link icons can also be activated by “dragging and
dropping” an item to the icon.
Scanning to text using OCR
When you are scanning an item and choose Scan on the Document
Assistant and then select the Scan to Text, the JetSuite Pro software
initiates the scan using the best settings for text. Then, the OCR
software discards any graphics on the scanned item and converts the
text to editable text. When the OCR software has finished, the
converted text appears as an untitled file in your word-processing
program. Because OCR conversions are never perfect, proof the
converted text carefully.
