Create PDF from Microsoft Office
and other PC Applications
PaperPort Pro Office supports one-click
creation of PDF files from Microsoft
Office documents, and supports Print-to-PDF
using other Microsoft Windows applications,
including Corel® and Autodesk®.
A wide range of image formats can
also be converted into PDF - including
TIFF, MAX, JPG, BMP and GIF.
Scan-to-PDF
Use any local or network scanner
to turn paper documents into PDF
files that can be easily organized
and shared electronically. With
the DesktopDelivery feature, businesses
can eliminate the costly process
of making and delivering paper copies
of important documents. DelsktopDelivery
connects network digital copiers
to users' local desktops, making
it easier than ever to turn paper
into PDF files that can be shared
online and on email.
Capture Web Pages as PDF
PaperPort Pro Office lets users
capture Web pages as PDF files,
providing a full-color duplicate
for use offline. This is a great
way to capture a permanent record
of a Web site, speed 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 its
even a great way to save copies
of receipts from web purchase without
wasting paper.
Assemble Custom PDF Documents
With a single click of the mouse,
users can quickly assemble custom
PDF documents, combining scanned
paper and pages from PC applications,
including Microsoft Word, Excel,
PowerPoint, into a single document.
PDF documents can be reordered and
merged right on the PaperPort Desktop
using PaperPort's drag & drop
stacking capability - just as you
do with real paper.
Intuitive Thumbnail Desktop
Nearly every application file type
and image format can be viewed within
the PaperPort Pro Office visual
desktop, which provides clear thumbnails
to allow users to quickly find documents
without having to open them. PaperPort
also includes built-in viewers for
all popular formats, providing an
affordable way to ensure that everyone
can view image formats like TIFF,
JPG, and PDF, as well as Microsoft
Word, Excel and PowerPoint files.
Document Search and Retrieval
The SimpleSearch feature allows
users to quickly find any document
just by typing in a word or phrase
that appears in the document. Documents
stored on local PC's and on the
network are automatically indexed
by PaperPort, which uses highly
accurate OCR to make even scanned
paper and PDF files searchable.
SimpleSearch support Boolean queries,
fuzzy searching and keyword searching
as well.
Safely Annotate and Collaborate
with eMail
eMail is a convenient and fast way
to review and approve documents
within a workgroup, or with people
outside your organization. PaperPort
works with your current email system
to enhance the digital review process,
by converting Word and other editable
documents into more secure PDF files
- which can be read, but can't be
edited. This is especially ideal
for reviewing contracts and other
important documents. For capturing
review comments, PaperPort supports
creating and viewing annotations
within PDF files, including sticky
notes, highlights and stamps.
Fast, Easy Electronic
Form Filling
Filling out forms has never been
faster or easier thanks to the FormTyper™
feature, which instantly converts
static PDF forms into fill-able
electronic forms. Form fields are
automatically identified and created,
allowing the user to fill, save
and email the form online, or to
print the form for submission.
Cut & Paste Text -
From Paper and PDF
Eliminate re-typing by using the
OCR in PaperPort Pro Office to extract
text from scanned images and PDF
files. You can also copy a portion
of a scanned document to the clipboard,
then paste text into a word processor
or an email message.
Scan- and Copy-to-Desktop
PaperPort's DesktopDelivery™
feature reduces the costs associated
with manually copying and storing
paper documents by automatically
delivering scanned pages to the
user's PC from network scanning
devices, including MFPs and digital
copiers. DesktopDelivery instantly
converts scanned images into PDF
files, delivers them automatically
to the user's local desktop and
launches PaperPort with the document
open. From there its easy to drag
& drop documents to email for
sharing, store them on the PC or
on the network for later use and
clean up and combine them with other
documents right on the PaperPort
Desktop.
Paper On-Ramp for Content
Management
Many deployments of content management
systems flounder because users find
it difficult to add documents to
the system, and that it is especially
difficult to add paper documents
to the system. PaperPort Pro Office
simplifies content loading, adding
scanning, local file management,
and PDF creation capabilities to
the PC. This makes PaperPort Pro
Office an ideal way to implement
easy-to-use distributed capture
for content management systems.
Visual Document Management
PaperPort has a powerful, thumbnail-based
visual document desktop that allows
you to manage all of your content
within a single powerful application,
including content stored on your
local PC and on network document
archives.
SendTo Document Workflow
The SendTo bar makes it fast and
easy to send documents - or sets
of documents - to your e-mail client,
fax boards and printers. Better
still, the SendTo bar is also a
document on-ramp for sending documents
over FTP, moving files within the
network, and for connecting PaperPort
to existing workflow applications
and processes.
SendTo Enterprise Content
Management Systems
PaperPort Pro Office adds value
to existing investments in enterprise
content management (ECM) systems,
including Oracle 9i and Microsoft
SharePoint. PaperPort DesktopDelivery
is a paper onramp for ECM, providing
everything needed for users to scan,
review and submit paper into the
system using networked scanners.
PaperPort also simplifies working
with stored documents, providing
an easy way to move ECM documents
to and from the PC.
Network Install
PaperPort Pro Office supports push
or network installs for multi-seat
and site licenses.
Section 508 and Microsoft
Windows XP Certified
PaperPort Pro Office is compliant
with U.S. Section 508 accessibility,
and is Microsoft Windows XP Certified.

Certified Partner.
Custom PaperPort Link
Agents
Customers, VARs and integrators
can use the PaperPort Link Agent
SDK to create custom links and workflows
for PaperPort. Examples include
process-specific paper on-ramps
to Documentum and FileNET, and enabling
users to drag & drop multi-type
document sets onto a workflow process. |
