Viewing Items in PaperPort
®
PaperPort
®
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.
Page View displays a close-up of a single page and you can open a
PaperPort
®
item by double-clicking on it. As long as you have the
appropriate application on your computer to display it, you can also
double-click a non-PaperPort
®
item to open it.

Organizing Your Items in Folders
PaperPort
®
has an easy-to-use filing system for organizing your items.
The filing system consists of folders and items that you select to view in
Desktop View. An item can be a PaperPort
®
item or a non-PaperPort
®
item:
■
Folders are arranged in a “tree” structure in the Folder View. You use this
pane to select folders and view their items in Desktop View.
■
You can simply drag and drop an item onto a folder. When the folder is
highlighted, release the mouse button and the item is stored in that folder.
■
Folders can be “nested”—that is, stored in other folders.
■
When you double-click a folder, its items (both PaperPort
®
MAX files and
other files) appear on the Desktop.
■
You can also use Windows
®
Explorer to manage the folders and items
shown in Desktop View.
