Tech Tip: Modifying and Creating Documents from the Thumbnail Pane
November 24th, 2008 Comment on this articleIn the Thumbnail Pane of the Laserfiche 8 Client, you can work with individual pages of a document, rearranging them in that document or even moving them to other existing or new documents. This is helpful if you find that pages have been scanned out of order or organized incorrectly, or if you want to create a new document based on some components of an existing one.
Within a document, you can rotate, move, or copy pages.
To rotate one or more pages:
- Select the page or pages in the Thumbnail Pane. To select more than one page at a time, hold down the CTRL or SHIFT key while selecting.
- Right-click the pages and select Rotate Image(s).
- Choose Clockwise, Counterclockwise, or Upside-Down.
To re-order pages within a document:
- Select the thumbnails of the pages.
- Drag and drop them in the new location.
To create multiple copies of the same page within a document:
- Right-click the thumbnails of the pages you want to copy and select Copy.
- Right-click again where you want to copy them and select Paste.
You can also move or copy pages to another document.
To move pages from one document to another existing document:
- Open both documents in separate Document Viewers.
- Drag the pages from one Thumbnail Pane to the other.
To copy pages from one document to another existing document:
- Select the page or pages, right-click, and select Copy.
- In the other Document Viewer, right-click in the Thumbnail Pane where you want to place the pages, and select Paste.
To split one document into multiple documents:
- Select the page or pages you want to move to a new document, right-click, and select New Document.
- The New Document dialog box will open and allow you to configure the new document containing those pages.
