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!
