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™
Images created on your copyboard and scanned into your computer cannot
®
be converted to text using TextBridge OCR software, the handwritten
image on the board is saved as an image file.
® ®
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.
