Links to Many 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.)
Using ScanSoft ™ TextBridge ® OCR
(Converting Image Text to Text You Can Edit)
Software by: ScanSoft™
ScanSoft ™ TextBridge ® OCR is automatically installed when you install
PaperPort ® on your computer.
PaperPort ® can quickly convert the text on a PaperPort ® item (which is
really just a picture of the text) into text that you can edit with a word
processing application. PaperPort
® uses the optical character recognition
application TextBridge ® , which comes with PaperPort ® —OR—PaperPort ®
uses your application if it is already on your computer. You can convert
the entire item, or by using the Copy As Text command, you can select
only a portion of the text to convert.
Dragging an item onto a word-processing link icon starts PaperPort ® ’s
built-in OCR application, or you can use your own OCR application.
