Perceptive Content Apps Information

Summary

Perceptive Content Apps is the replacement for ImageNow WebNow. Content Apps enables more flexibility by allowing access through any web browser because Java is no longer required as with WebNow. If transitioning from using WebNow, users will notice similarities between the products, or if a new user, the intuitive interface will allow for a quicker and easier learning curve than with WebNow.

Working with Documents

Once logged into Content Apps, you will be located on the Home screen where you can choose to view Documents by clicking the “Documents” app.

The document viewer is split into two panes, similar to the Perceptive Content desktop clients. In the left pane you will see every document view (folder) you have access to. If additional views are required, you may need to submit a request for additional access through your security manager. In the right pane, every document under the highlighted view will be displayed.

Hundreds and even thousands of documents may be available, so you may need to narrow the list by providing specific search keywords such as university ID or name. Click in the Search box and the Add Constraint: section will display. Enter the search criteria and select the Add button. To enter multiple search criteria select the Add button within the search bar.

An open document is split into three panes.

The left panes displays thumbnails of each page of the scanned document, which allows for easier verification and quicker retrieval of information.
The middle pane is the highlighted page from the left pane. With the proper roles you can view, modify, or add annotations in this pane.
The right pane displays the document properties and custom properties that the document is indexed by.
