The Whiteboard can open and import
a number of different file formats, images (GIF, JPG
and PNG), MS Word and PowerPoint (Marratech
for Windows) and Adobe PDF files (Marratech
for Mac OS X).
| Save and open Whiteboard documents
using Save, Save Page and Open on
the File menu. |
- To save the entire Whiteboard and all of
its pages, use Save --> Save.
- To save only the current Whiteboard page,
use Save --> Save Page.
- You can also save the whole Whiteboard page (or parts of it) using Export Image including what you have done using the built in tools in the Marratech Whiteboard. Note that you can select parts of the page and save only that, but in order to incorporate background objects (shared and captured application windows) you need to export the whole page, not having anything selected.
- As of version 6.1 the Marratech client also supports Save As!

| Use File, Open to
open a Marratech Whiteboard document, text document
or image. |
|
 Windows
users can open MS Word and MS PowerPoint
files directly in the Whiteboard. To do this,
MS Office must be installed on your computer.
One Whiteboard page is created for each Word
page or PowerPoint slide.
|
 |
|
|
Marratech for Mac OS X can open PDF
files directly into the Whiteboard. |
|
All Mac OS X applications capable of printing
can export to the PDF format.
Marratech also has extensive copy/paste capabilities.
You can copy/paste from MS Excel, Word,
PowerPoint etc.
|
 |
|
|
|
When opening an MS Word document on a Windows
machine, you may open the whole document, or a range
of pages from it.
You can
also select what range of pages to open when opening
Adobe PDF files in the Mac OS X version
of Marratech.
|
 |
|
|
|
With MS PowerPoint documents, you may also
scale the slides to a smaller or larger size.
When working with MS Excel we recommend the
use of copy/paste, or using the functions
for window capture or sharing.

|
|
| The Import function differs
from Open as it brings text or image
files into the current whiteboard page. |
|
In contrast, Open creates a new whiteboard
page for every file.
Open also sets the opened document in the
background of the whiteboard page, whereas Import
creates an object.
|
 |
|
|
The File, Import, Video
Snapshot function lets you bring high quality
pictures from your camera directly into the whiteboard.
This is useful for taking a snapshot of a product
prototype, an injured hand, etc. |
|
Keep in mind that you must be sending video to import
a Video Snapshot.
This useful tool is also available directly from the
Whiteboard's tool bar:
|
 |
There are also functions on the Edit menu for pasting
and copying both text and images from other applications
into
the Whiteboard. Using the clipboard you can even insert
a whole window by first "grabbing" the current
active window using Alt + Print Screen (on Windows)
and then pasting it into the Whiteboard.
To choose where to insert an object, click in the work area
of the Whiteboard
where the object should be inserted.
