Viewing and editing

The document view

Opening a document shows its preview along with tags, correspondent, document type, archive serial number and the OCR text the server extracted. Open writes the file into ~/Downloads/Paperiton under the name the server keeps for it: pictures are shown inside Paperiton, PDFs and other files are opened with the system handler (see Files and permissions). Download in the pulley menu writes the same file there without opening it.

Editing one document

The edit page changes title, correspondent, document type, tags, date, archive serial number and custom fields. Correspondents, types and tags are picked from what the server knows.

Editing several documents

From the document list you can select several documents and change their tags, correspondent or document type in one step. Download on a row’s context menu, or on the pulley menu when two or more are selected, writes each file into ~/Downloads/Paperiton under the name the server keeps for it (the same archived-or-original choice a single Open would make).

Notes

Notes on a document can be read, written and deleted from the notes page.
