Workspace

In the Workspace, you can create documents, view the current grouping of images into documents, process the documents, and store selected documents. You can either process the documents yourself or review and modify the results of automatic processing (unless PhotoDocs is set to store the documents automatically). To modify selected pages manually, you can select them in the Workspace and open them in the Image Editor.

When you first move images into the Workspace, you may be prompted to connect to a Laserfiche Repository.

In the Workspace, you can select or modify individual pages or entire documents. You can also change the display of all the items in the Workspace.
