SHARPDESK (Desktop Document Management Software)
Sharpdesk lets you manage a variety of electronic information such as scanned image data from a Digital Laser
Copier/Printer or documents created using word processing or spreadsheet application software. Some of the
important features of Sharpdesk are:
• Sharpdesk works with your scanner to let you read paper documents into your computer using a full-featured set
of scanning controls and options.
• Sharpdesk makes editing of your images and documents quick and easy.
A text image scanned into Sharpdesk can be converted into editable text for use with your favorite word processor.
Sharpdesk uses an advanced Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine that even preserves your document layouts.
• Distributing documents by e-mail or printing a hard copy is as easy as dragging a file onto an icon on the
Sharpdesk OutputZone.
• Multiple files can be combined together into a single new file. After creating a combination file, the page order can
be changed or new pages added.
• You can search for an image or text file using a single word, phrase, or list of words. You can also perform a
detailed search by specifying the file type, modified data, or a keyword.
• A color image scanned on the machine can be saved as a PDF file using a high compression ratio to reduce the
file size. (To view a PDF file saved using a high compression ratio, the latest version of Adobe Reader is required.)
NETWORK SCANNER TOOL
This is a utility that helps you use Scan to Desktop. It configures the necessary settings in the Digital Laser
Copier/Printer and client computer to receive data. In addition, Network Scanner Tool will automatically start
Sharpdesk upon receiving image data.
The scanned image received by your computer can automatically be:
• Saved in a folder.
• Passed to the application set in Network Scanner Tool.
• Sent as e-mail.
• Saved in Sharpdesk.
SHARP TWAIN AR/DM
SHARP TWAIN AR/DM imports image data from a Twain interface into a Twain-compliant application. SHARP
TWAIN AR/DM has the following features:
• A selected range of the image data can be imported.
• The image can be rotated when imported.
