The product brings a new level of productivity to users of Microsoft Windows by combining an innovative Split Desktop with the ease of One-Click Scanning, the power of PDF document assembly and the convenience of All-in-One Search - making it easier than ever to organise, find and share documents and digital images.

PaperPort is used by millions from the home office to legal, medical, corporate and government organisations - to quickly organise all of their PC files, including scanned paper, PDF, digital documents, and digital images.

Adding to its growing number of loyal users, the product has also gained industry respect for the elegant and intuitive way it allows users to organise documents, including winning a "Product of the Year" from PC Magazine in 2003, and being named one of the "Hottest 50 Products" by Smart Computing in 2004.

Documents within remote folders can be converted into PDF copies, and assembled with other PDF documents.
