72 VISIONEER STROBE XP SCANNER USER’S GUIDE
Create copies of scanned documents—Sometimes the image of a
scanned document is only saved as a temporary file until its
Destination Application is finished using it. In those cases you may
want an additional, permanent copy saved on your hard drive.
For example, if you scan a picture to an email application, the
scanned image is saved as a temporary file, then attached to the
email, and the email is sent. Later, the temporary file of the scanned
picture is deleted. The same situation may occur when you scan
directly to a printer or scan to a fax application. After a scanned
item is printed or faxed, its temporary file is deleted. However, by
selecting this Create copies of scanned documents option, you
can choose to save permanent copies of the scanned items on your
hard drive.
The copies will be saved in the folder specified in the Folder Copy
Options section (see the figure on page 73 and the description
below).
You can selectively choose the types of Destination Applications
that will have their scanned images saved permanently. For
example, if your computer is connected to multiple printers and fax
machines, each one is considered a separate Destination
Application. By selecting the Fax and Print box and clicking the
Create copies of scanned documents option, every scanned
document you fax or print from the scanner is also saved as a
permanent file on your hard drive.
This option is not available if either the Document Management
or Storage and CD-R/W options are selected because, by default,
file copies for those types of Destination Applications are already
automatically saved in the folder for copies.
For that reason, this option is not available if the PaperPort software
is the Destination Application because it is already Document
Management applications.
