Importing 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).

Exporting Items in Other Formats

You can export or save PaperPort® items in several popular file formats, such as BMP, JPEG, TIFF, or self-viewing. For example, to create a file for an Internet Web site, export it as a JPEG file. Web pages often use JPEG files for displaying images.
