Scanning Images and PDFs Into Working Papers
Scan and insert images as documents on the Document Manager. The images can be saved in *.bmp, *.jpeg, *.gif, *.pdf, or *.tiff formats.
Once the image has been scanned into Working Papers it displays with the internal image viewer. Use the internal image viewer to include a header, show roles, add annotations, and convert to *.pdf. The image can also be shown in an external viewer.
Important: The scanned document option does not appear unless a TWAIN compatible scanner is installed.
