upgraded from ON2003 to 2007 and I have some questions

[Travis]

I just upgraded from 2003 to 2007 today hoping for a better product, but so
far that isn't happening. First, in ON 2003 I always sent all of my class
lecture notes to onenote so that each separate slide had its own page in a
section. This makes it a lot easier to flip through notes quickly. However,
in ON 2007, I cannot find this option, it just always prints as one long
page, which is a pain to sift through. Second, the main reason I upgraded
was to be able to search text in images of my notes. However, the only way
I can get it to search my converted 2003 files is to manually go to each
image, right click it and enable text searching. This is not a possible
option as I have thousands of slides and that would just take years to do
that to each on. Any help on these issues would be appreciated. If I can't
get these resolved, I guess it is back to good old ON 2003.

Thanks

What method are you using to "Send" your class notes to OneNote? Are
you printing to OneNote? Using a PowerToy? What? Also what
application (PowerPoint?) and what version of that app are you sending
from?

There is a great PowerToy "Printout Manager" which you can use after
printing things into ON:

P.S. I can bit say anything on your second topic (as I do bit have any
files from ON 2003)

thanks for the printing help. Does anyone have any ideas about the making
images searchable? There has to be a way, it just isn't logical to have to
do each manually.
