ONVERTING AN ITEM TO TEXT
To convert an item to text, you first place the item into PaperPort, such
as by scanning a document to PaperPort. Then you use a word-
processing link and the built-in OCR application to convert the item to
text. You can convert an item to text from either Desktop View or Page
View.
To convert an item from Desktop View:
1. Select the item to convert. It can be a single page or a stack.
2. Drag the item onto a word-processing link, such as Microsoft
Word, on the Link Bar.
You can also click the link icon.
