Links to Many Other Applications
ScanSoft™ PaperPort
®
automatically recognizes many other applications on
your computer and creates a “working link” to them. The Link Bar at the bottom
of Desktop view shows icons of those linked applications. To use a link, drag an
item onto one of the icons to start the application represented by the icon. A
typical use of the Link Bar is to select an item and then fax it.
This sample Link Bar shows several applications with links to PaperPort
®
.
If PaperPort
®
does not automatically recognize one of the applications on your
computer, you can manually create a link using the Create New Link
command. (See PaperPort
®
in the On-Line-Documentation on the CD-ROM
for more information about creating new links.)
