To get the eraser back in PaperPort for Windows while scanning a document, you can try the following steps:

  • Open the PaperPort program.
  • Go to the toolbar or menu options and look for a tool or option related to erasing or editing.
  • Click on the eraser tool or select the option to enable erasing.
  • Once the eraser is active, you should be able to use it while scanning or editing your document.

I have PaperPort 10 Version 10.0 - S/N 6809A-H56-001002. Apparently there is an update, but the screen comes up blank. What can I do to get the updates?

Answer by Alex Urbach

For applications like this one, updates are provided through an Updater. To check for updates, go to Help > and look for Check for updates. Some apps are configured to check for updates when they're started.


Make sure that your firewall allows PaperPort and all its modules to access Internet. There could also be the problem with their servers being in maintenance or having issues.

You need to download the product you have already purchased again. To download the application you will need the order number and the password. To find them check the Look Up Your Order section from the Nuance Communications web page. Click the Begin Download button after you fill up the order number and password boxes. You can find the serial number in the Order Confirmation email that you received when you submitted the order.

Paperport 8 is not compatible with Windows 8. However, there is a newly released version (version 14) that is compatible with Windows 8 and WIndows 7. You will need to use that version. Visit the official website to get more information about this product.

I'm using PaperPort 10 with a Xerox Documate 510 scanner and all my scans are inverted (black instead of white). Can you help?

I am trying to scan both sides of my invoices. I do not see the option to set it for both sides. Also, while scanning, when I get a paper jam, it saves it each time instead of continuing, so I have to stack them after. How can I fix this?

J
Answer by Julia Bocchetta

The double side scanning is available from Paperport 9 and later. To do this you need to use the option in the Scanner options within PaperPort's scanner panel. When the option is activated, specify the number of pages, then the software will merge the scans together after it's finished. For more information I recommend checking the official support page that deals with this procedure: http://nuance.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4123/~/using-the-double-sided-scanning-option-with-paperport-9

Answer by Dan Angel

If PaperPort still appears on your program list after you uninstall it, means that the application is not uninstalled properly. Restart your computer and if it still appears in the list try using Revo Uninstaller in order to uninstall it. Even if it can't uninstall the application normally, it will force it to uninstall by wiping out all traces of its presence from the system.


After that, try running AdwCleaner to make sure that there are no leftover rogue registry keys or toolbars in your system.
