Using PaperPort
Specify the search criteria as follows:
Page Name — The name of the item, generated when the item was first
created. You can edit the name in the Summary tab whenever necessary.
Author — The name of the individual who created the item or who is
responsible for its content.
Keywords — Any words that you want to assign to the item for search and
retrieval purposes. Use a comma or a space to separate multiple keywords.
Comments — Any comment text that you want to assign to the item. You can
copy text from any file or document and insert it into this field.
Finding Items
PaperPort provides different features to help you find your PaperPort items. For
example, you can quickly find an item by visually browsing through thumbnails on
your Desktop, as described on page 18.
When you have many folders and items, PaperPort provides more powerful
capabilities with SimpleSearch.
SimpleSearch is one of PaperPort's most powerful features. It provides many
options for specifying where and what to look for when finding an item, including
indexed text content. The information you want to find is referred to as search
criteria.
You can look for items either by:
Item properties
Text content
Finding items by their properties
When you search by item properties, you can specify criteria of an item name, the
author, added comments or keywords, text in annotations, or the URL of a captured
web page. This is the same information you can enter for an item as discussed in
"Adding search criteria to items" on page 29.
