Create articles using file import

With the help of the import functions, you can create articles directly from DOC, DOCX, TXT, RTF and PDF files.

 

Create new articles from files

Open the main menu and first click on "Import" then on "File Import".

 

 

In the right part of the program window, you will then be presented with a choice of file formats that lexiCan can read out and convert into an article. Select the desired format and click on "Start import".

 

 

Navigate to the relevant file in the dialogue window and confirm your selection via "Open".

 

 

lexiCan then creates a new article at the top outline level and inserts the contents of the file into it. The article is named according to the file name.

 

Please refer to the article Special: PDF-files in connection with PDF files.
