9 - 26 HOW TO SCAN USING WINDOWS®
ScanSoft® TextBridge® OCR lets you convert image text in to text you can edit
ScanSoft® TextBridge® OCR is installed automatically with
PaperPort® when you install MFL-Pro Suite on your computer.
ScanSoft® PaperPort® can quickly convert the text on a ScanSoft®
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
ScanSoft® 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 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.
You can Import items from other applications
In addition to scanning items, you can bring items into PaperPort® in
a variety of ways and convert them to PaperPort® (MAX) files in
several different ways:
■Print to the Desktop View from another application, such as
Microsoft Excel.
■Import files saved in other file formats, such as Windows® Bitmap
(BMP) or Tag Image File Format (TIFF).
