Before recognized cards can be exported, their output format must
be specified.

Business cards can be saved in three different output formats: in
vCard files, Unicode files and HTML files.

vCard files

The output format is set to vCard files by default.

vCard files can also be swiftly imported into any vCard compliant
application e.g. Microsoft Entourage.

Select the option Send to - Add Application to define target
applications that were not preprogrammed.

Use this option to send contacts to your mail software for instance. A
new e-mail message will be opened and the vCard file will be added
as attachment.

Scanned cards can also be exported instantly by means of drag-and-
drop operations. One vCard file per card is created on the Desktop.
Double-click the vCard file to add the contacts to the Apple Address
Book.
