A Better Way to Organize Files

All your files can be easily viewed, accessed and arranged via large clear document thumbnails on the desktop. PaperPort PC document management allows you to:

• Quickly Scan Paper
• Share Photos as JPEG or PDF
• Manage PDF Documents
• View and Print over 150 File Formats
• Fill Out Forms Electronically
• Capture Web Pages

Only PaperPort lets you see all of your work at once - providing large thumbnails of scanned documents, photos and application documents allowing you to quickly find, organize and use all your files without having to open them to see what's inside. It's even better than having your paper documents spread out on your real desktop!

• Intuitive Thumbnail Desktop
  PaperPort's visual desktop has large, clear page and document thumbnails to improve the way you work with over 150 file types including Microsoft® Office files, digital photos, PDF files, scanned and digital forms, saved Web pages and all your scanned paper documents.
• Fast, Easy Electronic Form Filling
  Create neat, shareable and searchable forms in minutes. With FormTyper, completing paper forms has never been quicker. FormTyper automatically identifies the form fields allowing you to quickly tab to a fillable form field, type the information, and print, save or e-mail the completed form faster than completing and mailing or faxing the form by hand.
• Cut & Paste Text - From Paper and PDF
  Eliminate re-typing information by using the OCR in PaperPort to extract text from scanned images and PDF files. You can even copy a portion of a scanned document to the clipboard, and then paste the text directly into a word processor or an email message.

Easy Scanning - For Everyone

PaperPort is simply the best thing you could ever do for your all-in-one or scanner. After all, who wants to spend a lot of time scanning? You know having all your documents available as digital copies will save you time and money but scanning documents often takes too much work. It can be frustrating trying to get the right result. PaperPort has the answer so now you can finally win the battle over paper and never loose those important documents again.

• Support for Scanner Buttons
  Many scanning devices such as All-in-Ones come with scanner buttons to scan directly to your computer. Unfortunately your scans often don't end up where or how you'd like them due to a lack of control. Now PaperPort can take control of your scanner buttons so you always get the results you expect and a much better way to manage your scanned documents.
• One Interface for All Your Scanners
  Every scanning device comes with a different interface or control panel for scanning documents. With all the different choices and options the task of scanning different documents can be overwhelming. PaperPort simplifies things with one easy to understand scanning interface that will work the same for all your scanners.
• Get the Results You Expect - Automatically
  There is nothing more disappointing than scanning a document and getting poor results. Trying to figure out how to get the best possible result can be even more frustrating. PaperPort does all this for you with our Scanner Enhancement Technology (SET) Tools that can automatically apply corrections to your documents or photos while you are scanning. Auto-straighten, auto-crop, auto-rotate, and auto-enhance are just few of the improvements that are available with PaperPort.
• Get Scanning Right in One Step
  Different document types require different settings to get results you expect. Some documents contain color and some are simple black-and-white and almost all your documents can use some improvement along the way. Now you can encapsulate all your settings including color, format and SET corrections into Scanner Profiles so you get the results you expect with the push of one button.

Scan & Manage PDF Documents

PaperPort simplifies the use of PDF documents. The portable document format (PDF), is an open standard file format for sharing electronic documents - on email, over the network, and on the Web. PaperPort uses PDF to make a "digital copy" of your documents, sometimes referred to as Image PDF. For more comprehensive PDF support take a look at PaperPort Professional.

• Scan-to-PDF
  Use any scanner to turn paper documents directly into PDF files that can be easily organized and shared with email more securely and efficiently than paper.
• Print-to-PaperPort (PDF)
  Create digital copies of your documents by printing files to the Image PDF file format. These documents are not as versatile as "normal" PDF files but this is a quick and convenient way to create a digital copy of a paper file when you need it.
• Capture Web Pages as PDF
  Capture Web pages as PDF files, providing a full-color duplicate for use offline. This is a great way to store a permanent record of a Web site, speed up Web-based research, or for sharing Web pages as PDF attachments instead of sending a link that requires connectivity to the Web. Captured Web pages look exactly like they would if you had sent them to your printer, so it's even a great way to save copies of receipts from web purchases without wasting paper.
• Assemble Custom PDF Documents with Drag & Drop Simplicity
  Working with scanned PDF documents is as easy as stacking paper. PaperPort features a unique desktop design that displays individual page thumbnails alongside document thumbnails. Drag and drop entire documents within another document or selectively copy and paste individual pages from one PDF document to another. Quickly assemble custom PDF documents by combining scans with other PDF files.

Find All Your Documents with Ease

PaperPort's All-in-One Search is a powerful search engine that is the one place to instantly find your paper or digital documents on your PC. Just type in a word or phrase and PaperPort will quickly retrieve the right document.

• Search for Information Locked in Scanned, Image and PDF files
  PaperPort's All-in-One Search will actually "read" all your files with the built-in OmniPage Search Indexer so you can search for a word contained INSIDE any document including scanned paper. The OmniPage Search Indexer is based on technology found in ScanSoft OmniPage Professional 15, the world's most accurate and best-selling solution for turning paper and PDF into documents you can edit and archive.
• Document Search and Retrieval
  All-in-One Search enables everyone in your office to find any document - whether it's local or on a network folder. Search by content, keyword or annotations. PaperPort's flexible Search Index Manager allows you take advantage of non-peak processing times by scheduling when and how PaperPort will convert all your image files to searchable documents using the built-in OmniPage Search Indexer.
• Your Personal Research Assistant
  What's the perfect complement to the PaperPort All-in-One Search? It's Elementary - introducing our intelligent search agent: PaperPort Watson. PaperPort Watson expands your search universe far beyond the All-in-One Search. It searches the Web, e-mails, news sites, blogs, shopping sites, and works with other desktop search applications like MSN, Google, and X1. PaperPort Watson is special because it finds relevant information and automatically brings it to you in a flexible sidebar that docks next to your PaperPort desktop. It's perfect for doing research and collecting relevant search results into a PaperPort folder to organize and combine. You can even Drag-and-Drop search results to the PaperPort Desktop as PDF files. It's a revolutionary way to intelligently find what you are looking for no matter where or what it is!
