Chapter 3 How to Use the ScanSnap
With the ScanSnap, you can turn paper office documents on your desk into digital files, save them, attach
them to e-mail, and print them just by pressing a single button. The scanned image can be viewed on the
screen using the application (Preview).
Two typical usages are:
• Create digital backups of general office documents in PDF format.
You can edit them later using Adobe Acrobat. Adobe Acrobat allows you to make full use of the
scanned information by using the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) function to recognize the
image of the text portion, the security function to set passwords, etc.
(Note: For information on using Adobe Acrobat, please refer to "Adobe Acrobat Help".)
• With the "Action List", attach the scanned documents to e-mail, print them out with a printer, and
share them over the network.
