Saving a Document to Your Computer

While you can use the "manage documents" feature to access your scanned documents from any computer at any time, it is sometimes desirable to save a document for further editing on your own machine. You can do this using the "save to this computer" option in the "manage documents" section.

First, choose the document you'd like to save. Next, tab through the document until you encounter the "save to this computer" button. Press the space bar here, and you'll be presented with a dialogue box where you can enter a file name and browse to the desired location to save the file. Note that the file name field will already be filled in with the name of the scanned project, but you can change this if you wish. Once you've chosen the location to save the file, and you've given it a proper name, tab to the "save" button and press the space bar to save the document to your computer.

Now, if you'd like to do further editing on your document, use "Windows Explorer" or "my computer" to browse to the location where you've saved it, and press enter to open it.

Saving a Document to Your Computer in Large Print

While you can use the built-in magnification features of DocuScan Plus to view your scanned document in larger type, it is sometimes advantageous to be able to save the document to your own computer in large print format. In this way, you can print the document to share with others who require large print, or you can view the document on-screen in large type for easy reading and editing. Note that saving a document in large print will alter the formatting in order to accommodate the larger type, and is likely to take up more pages than the original document when printing.

To save to your computer in large print format, choose the document you'd like to save from the "manage documents" section of DocuScan Plus. Next, tab through the document until you encounter the "save to this computer as large print" button. Press the space bar here, and you'll be presented with a dialogue box where you can enter a file name and browse to the desired location to save the file. Note that the file name field will already be filled in with the name of the scanned project, but you can change this if you wish. Once you've chosen the location to save the file, and you've given it a proper name, tab to the "save" button and press the space bar to save the document to your computer.

Now, if you'd like to print your work or do further editing on your document, use "Windows Explorer" or "my computer" to browse to the location where you've saved it, and press enter to open it.
