Online Scanning Directly Into DocLanding

If you have a handful of documents to scan and upload daily, DocLanding makes it easy.  Third-party scanning applications and all the mouse clicks it takes to scan, save, find and upload will be a thing of the past.

Instead, DocLanding lets you scan documents to exactly where you want in the repository using any TWAIN-compliant scanner. (These scanners are fairly common. Please refer to the TWAIN Working Group for more information.)

Here’s how easy it is:

1. In DocLanding, go to the file cabinet or folder in your POINT where you want to add the document and then click Scan on the toolbar.

2. Click the Scan button in the Scan Files dialog box.

  • The first time you do this, another dialog box appears to let you add the scanning functionality to your browser – select the check box “Always trust content from this publisher” and click Run. Then click Scan again to begin scanning.
  • If you have more than one scanner, first select your scanner: Click the down arrow on the Scan button, click Select Scanner, select your scanner and click Select.
  • The down arrow on the Scan button also gives you access to Scanner Settings that you can change as necessary.

3. When you have completed scanning, click Finish.

That’s it. Your scanned documents are where you want them to be.

Notice that the Scan Files dialog box does have a Location drop-down menu, in case you want to change the scanning destination from where you are currently.

In a future post, we’ll tell you about the DocLanding Capture application, which is great for scanning, indexing and uploading large batches of files directly into DocLanding.  Stay tuned.

Thanks,
The DocLanding Team
