Viewing Items in ScanSoft™ PaperPort® for BrotherPaperPort® provides several ways to view items: Desktop View displays a thumbnail, a small graphic that represents each item in a Desktop or folder. Items in the selected folder appear on the PaperPort® Desktop. You can see PaperPort® items (MAX files) and non-PaperPort®items (files created using other applications).
Non-PaperPort®items include an icon that indicates the application that was used to create the item; a non-PaperPort®item is represented by a small rectangular thumbnail and not an actual image.
