The PaperPort software automatically saves all items that you place on the
PaperPort Desktop to your hard disk in the folder currently open (named
in the Navigation pop-up menu). For example, if the Articles folder is
currently open and its items displayed on the PaperPort Desktop, any
new item that you scan, import, or drag to the PaperPort Desktop is saved
in the Articles folder. For information about moving items between
different folders, see Chapter 4, "Filing Items into Folders." To save an
item with a different name or in a different format, use the Save As
command.
TIP: You can also automatically save a copy of an item that you scan
directly to another destination, such as your electronic fax software, by
using the Save Copy To option in the Scan Settings dialog box.
For more information, see Chapter 2, "Scanning Items."
If you open items directly in the Page Viewer, a message appears asking
you to save the changes when you close the item. You must save the
changes or the item is not saved to your hard disk.
In addition to saving an item as a PaperPort item, you can save an item in
a variety of other formats, such as TIFF or JPEG, for use with other
applications.
To save a copy of an item using a different name or location:
1. On the PaperPort Desktop or in the Page Viewer, select the item that
you want to save.
2. From the File menu, choose Save As. The directory dialog box
appears.
3. Select the drive and folder to which you want to save the item.
4. Type the name of the copy in the "Save as" box.
5. Click Save. The item is saved under the new filename.
TIP: You can also make a copy of an item by holding down the
Option key as you drag the item to a different folder.
