To browse through item thumbnails

A quick way to locate your PaperPort items is to visually browse through the thumbnails on your PaperPort desktop. Each thumbnail is a small graphic representation of your document or photo.

PaperPort shows large, clear thumbnails of all your scanned documents and photos, including:

  • PDF documents

  • Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Word Perfect, and other documents created in popular software programs

  • Image files in many formats, such as BMP, TIFF, JPEG, and MAX

To display thumbnails, click the Page Thumbnail button on the Desktop ribbon (desktop view) or on the View ribbon (Image View).
