Are you a business person trying to keep track of customer correspondence, invoices, and business cards or a home PC user looking to safeguard important household documents, such as deeds and insurance policies? Armed with a scanner and software such as PaperPort Professional 12 you can finally get a handle on those piles of paper threatening to take over your desktops. Even better, once you've scanned your documents, PaperPort helps you to keep track of those files so that you may just achieve that paperless office we've been hearing so much about.

Scanning a document really couldn't be any simpler: You simply click the Scan button within the PaperPort desktop and the program takes care of the rest. Even better, link the button on your scanner to PaperPort and with a single press of the button, the PaperPort application loads and scans your document. In a multipage scan. you can view each page separately and reorder them on the fly with a simple drag and drop of your mouse.

PaperPort Professional 12 also helps you to organize and later retrieve all those different types of documents. You can create multiple file folders, color code them, and then add detailed information to the folder properties for later searching and retrieval. For instance, you can scan all of your business expenses and have them neatly arranged in a Tax folder so that they are at the ready when tax season rolls around. If you still can't track down a scanned document, you can use the All-in-One Search utility to find what you need.

Yet PaperPort is more than a tool for managing your electronic documents. The PageView module lets you share and collaborate with your colleagues by highlighting important sections and adding digital sticky notes. Unlike Adobe Acrobat's Reader program, PageView lets you easily edit and clean up a scanned document. For instance, you can automatically align pages from a bad scan, use the eraser to get rid of stains and smudges, and use the edging tool to quickly remove the outer edges of a document.

If you find that you are performing most of your document management chores from within PaperPort, you may want to consider the Professional version. At $199, PaperPort 12 Professional uses a split-screen desktop so that you can work in and manage multiple folders at the same time. Additionally, you can automate much of the conversion process and the Desktop Delivery system automatically routes any document from a network scanner or digital copier to your PaperPort desktop.

PaperPort Professional 12, a new release of the world's most popular scanning and document management application for Microsoft Windows. The new release makes it faster and easier for home and office users to get organized and win the battle over paper. PaperPort Professional 12 delivers significant interface enhancements, dramatic speed and accuracy improvements, integration with Microsoft SharePoint, and a range of new features that help users do more with all of the documents and digital photographs on their PC.

PaperPort Professional 12 adds a number of new features designed to scan, organize and eliminate piles of paper - including invoices, contracts, photographs, and forms - and convert them into searchable electronic files that can be easily accessed and shared.

The most dramatic enhancement in PaperPort 12 is a completely new user interface, matching Microsoft Office and the upcoming Windows 7 "ribbon" approaches to ease-of-use. The redesign combines PaperPort's visual document desktop, which is highly valued by both users and industry experts, with ribbon-based menus that are easier to find and use. A new "Scan Now" interface addition makes scanning one-click easy from any part of the application.

PaperPort 12 features also significant increases in speed - up to five times faster than the previous version - in viewing and navigating PDF files. In addition, PaperPort 12 adds new PDF features to make it possible to convert scanned paper forms into fillable PDF forms and create secure industry-standard PDF documents. PaperPort 12 also delivers an unprecedented accuracy improvement of 40 percent through Nuance's world-class optical character recognition (OCR), instantly and accurately making scanned PDF files searchable. PaperPort Professional 12 also includes three levels of integration with Microsoft SharePoint for centralized content management, providing thumbnail views of SharePoint repositories in the PaperPort visual desktop, supporting drag & drop file transfer to and from SharePoint, and supporting accessing remote SharePoint repositories via VPN and network connections.

What's New in PaperPort Professional 12?

Tabbed Ribbon User Interface - PaperPort 12 is even easier to use because all of the program features are presented on a set of tabbed ribbon-style toolbars that logically group functions with clear text descriptions. The new "Scan Now" button lets people scan documents with one click - without having to change to the scanner settings view. A customizable Quick Access Toolbar appears above the ribbon toolbars making it easy to put the most frequently used features in one easy-to-find location on the desktop.

PDF Viewer Plus - Open and display PDF files faster than ever using PDF Viewer Plus, a newly developed Nuance PDF handling application that is fully compatible with Adobe® Acrobat® software. PDF Viewer Plus opens files much faster than the general-purpose ImageViewer (also available in PaperPort 12) for reduced memory requirements and smaller file sizes. The new viewer optimizes the rendering resolution for each element on the page to yield a cleaner display and optimum print resolution.

New PDF Tools - PDF Viewer Plus provides a wide range of new PDF features, including improved annotations and dynamic or transparent stamps. In PDF Viewer Plus, send images within a PDF document to the ImageViewer, where they can be enhanced using Scanner Enhancement Technology (SET) tools. Upon closing ImageViewer, the modified images automatically appear back inside the PDF.

PDF Forms - Fill and email PDF forms and create new ones - either from scratch or by using an updated FormTyper to make any static form fillable instantly. FormTyper is now integrated into the PDF Viewer Plus and uses Logical Form Recognition technology to detect the form elements. It also gives greater control over element properties.

Industry-standard PDF Creation - Using the PDF Create Assistant, people can create industry-standard text-based PDF documents from any application directly with a simple right-click through the Windows or PaperPort Desktops (up to PDF version 1.7). Another option is to create PDF documents by printing directly from any application using the PDF Create printer driver. The PDF Create Assistant also enables people to create PDF packages, batch create PDF files, and much more.

Searchable PDF - Searchable PDF files are now available through Scanner Profiles, via a right-click "Save As" operation on the PaperPort Desktop, or directly in the PDF Viewer Plus application. This makes the content of your scanned paper documents or image files accessible to search engines such as Windows Desktop Search or Google.

More Accurate OCR - PaperPort 12's optical character recognition (OCR) scanning accuracy has been significantly increased over previous versions. This improvement yields greater success when searching the content of Searchable PDF file archives. What's more, users can now apply language settings to OCR for even greater accuracy in all supported languages.

Support for SharePoint - PaperPort Professional 12 is able to communicate with the Microsoft SharePoint Services 2003, SharePoint Portal 2003, SharePoint Services 2007 and SharePoint Server 2007 document management systems. Now you can get files from these systems, process them as desired, and then save the results by sending the output files back through the Send To Bar. For added convenience, ScanDirect supports scanning to PDF with the results directed to SharePoint.
