Viewing items
ScanSoft® PaperPort® 9.0SE provides several ways to view items:
Desktop View displays a thu mbnail (a small graphic that
represents each item in a Desktop or folder).
Items in the selected folder appear on the PaperPort® 9.0SE
Desktop. You can see PaperP ort® 9.0SE items (MAX files)
and non-PaperPort® 9.0SE items (files created using other
applications).
Non-PaperPort® 9.0SE items include an icon that indicates
the application that was used to create the item; a
non-PaperPort® 9.0SE item is represented by a small
rectangular thumbnail and not an actual ima ge.
Page View displays a close-up of a single page and you can
open a PaperPort® 9.0SE item by double-clicking on it.
As long as you have the appropri ate application on your
computer to display it, you can also double-click a
non-PaperPort® 9.0SE item to open it.
Organizing your items in folders
PaperPort® 9.0SE has an easy-to-use filing system for organizing your items. The filing system consists of
folders and items that you select to view in Desktop View. An item can be a PaperPort® 9.0SE item or a
non-PaperPort® 9.0SE item:
■Folders are arranged in a “tr ee” structure in the Folder View.
You use this section to selec t folders and view their items in Desktop View.
■You can simply drag and drop an i tem onto a folder.
When the folder is highligh ted, release the mouse button and t he item is stored in that folder.
■Folders can be “nested”—that is, stored in other folde rs.
■When you double-click a folde r, its items (both PaperPort® 9.0SE MA X files and non PaperPort® 9.0SE
files) appear on the Desktop .
■You can also use Windows® Explorer to manage the folders and items sho wn in Desktop View.
