To print files to PaperPort as image items

The Print to PaperPort feature lets you bring spreadsheets, pictures, database, word processing, HTML, and other types of files into PaperPort as items on the PaperPort desktop.

Print these files as PDF Image (.pdf), or PDF Searchable Image (.pdf) files.

While you are working in another program, select PaperPort  Image Printer from your list of available printers and print the file. PaperPort will automatically convert the file to the file type specified under Item options, start PaperPort if it is not already open, and place the file as an item on the PaperPort desktop. The default type is PDF Image.

Click on the PaperPort button, choose Options, and click the Advanced tab to set the image quality for newly created PDF files.
