DocuWorks document handling software provides you with a uniform way to handle data of
various kinds. With DocuWorks, you can work with digital documents as if you were working with
paper documents. This section describes what you can do with DocuWorks.
1.1Introduction to DocuWorks
DocuWorks is software that converts paper documents and files that were created using other
applications into DocuWorks format to enable uniform handling of data. DocuWorks does away
with the need to be conscious of differences in computer file formats, making it possible to handle
document files in much the same manner as paper documents.
A document in DocuWorks format is called a DocuWorks file.
That growing mountain of paper... You can immediately find the desired
documents if they have been digitized and saved in digital format.
That mountain of paper just continues to grow. You can't remember where
you put those files, even though they were neatly filed away.
DocuWorks allows paper-based documents to be scanned and then
managed as electronic data. Once in electronic form, documents are easy
to find using the search function. Also, you can rotate electronic documents
to change the orientation or straighten the slant of electronic documents
after scanning.
It also saves storage space, increases efficiency, and reduces cost.
You can save Web-based information just like printing it on a paper.
When you save Web pages, pages that are different
from what you have viewed on the screen may be saved
due to the split frames within a window.
With DocuWorks, you can save the information on Web
pages in the same image as you see on the PC screen
by following the similar procedure used for printing. In
the same way, you can convert other information such
as e-mails to DocuWorks documents.
1 DocuWorks Overview 10
You can file or bind electronic data created by various applications into a
single document.
Suppose you want to insert Microsoft Excel tables, scanned materials, and digital camera
photo data into a report in Microsoft Word format and add titles or page numbers to distribute
as handouts for a meeting. You might even want to print those handouts or staple them.
DocuWorks manages files created using different application software as one document.
You can even replace the specified pages later or add sequential page numbers or headers.
A created document can have its original application file attached. DocuWorks also enables
enlarged or reduced printing of a variety of paper sizes such as A4 or Letter, on a specified
page sizes.
You can even process pages of various sizes or orientations to create a DocuWorks
document containing pages of unified size and aligned orientation and check it on the screen
before printing.
Writing memos or pasting notepads on electronic documents is also
possible
One of the good points of paper-based documents is that you can use
highlighter pens to mark important points, write comments, or paste notepads.
With DocuWorks, you can use highlight pens, add comments, paste notepads,
or put stamps onto the documents even though they are electronic. In addition,
you can use the signature function to clarify the person in charge of document
creation and in charge of approval, or use the security function to protect the
document.
You can also utilize or search texts in image data
You can create documents in electronic form by scanning, but that
doesn't allow you to re-use the text in the documents.
With DocuWorks, you can process scanned image data by OCR to
obtain the document's text. Characters and images of the application
data can also be extracted and re-used. You can perform search in the
extracted character data using a specified file name or the text in the
document as a keyword.
Various files can be consolidated and be managed in the Desk window
You might have found it difficult to manage files of different applications
and formats, because they were stored in different locations.
DocuWorks allows you to unify management of files including image files
(TIFF, JPEG, Bitmap), PDF, and files of other applications, in Desk with
easy operations, where they can be displayed as thumbnails. Or, you can
convert DocuWorks files to PDF or image files.
1 DocuWorks Overview 11
Operations such as printing, e-mail transmission, and saving files in
folders can be carried out in the Desk window.
Normally, you have to start your e-mail program to transmit documents by email, or start Windows Explorer to save documents.
DocuWorks can transmit multiple files at a time including DocuWorks files
and other application files. In addition, files can be saved in the shared folder
on the network.
Security levels can be set to protect documents
When transferring important documents via the Internet, you may be anxious about
the information being leaked or the contents being overwritten during transmission.
It is important for us to be able to handle documents with peace of mind regardless
of the user, environment, or tool, by implementing fail-safe operation.
You can set security levels to protect documents. The protected document can be
opened only by those that have the designated password or digital certificate, thus
preventing leakage of contents.

5.2Combining Documents into a Binder
A binder is a container that can store multiple DocuWorks documents as individual documents.
If you stack multiple documents without using a binder, the stacked multiple documents will
become one single document. When stacking multiple documents into a binder, they are stored
as independent documents so that you can manage them while retaining the original data, the
header and footer information, and the properties of the document.
This section describes how to create a binder, and add, retrieve, replace, rename, or delete
documents. We recommend that you copy documents or binders before starting document
manipulation if you are not accustomed to these operations.

9Securities and Digital
Signature
With the security settings, you can restrict users who can open DocuWorks files to those who
know the password or possess a specific electronic signature. You can also protect DocuWorks
files by restricting operations such as printing and editing.
There are 3 types of security settings available: password, DocuWorks Electronic Signature, and
digital certificate, for which you can specify the users who are allowed to open or manipulate
documents in respective ways.
You can sign a DocuWorks document in the same manner as you putting a seal or a signature
on a paper document. When documents are signed, it is possible to confirm the signer and the
contents of the documents at the point when they were signed, thus to prevent tampering or
forgery.
This section describes how to set these 3 types of securities and the features of the DocuWorks
Electronic Signature, as well as the digital certificate.
9.1Overview of Securities
You can protect confidential information by setting the security for documents. Documents and
binders that have their security configured are called protected documents.
Types of Securities
Password, DocuWorks Electronic Signature, and digital certificate are the 3 types of security
settings available, for which you can specify the users who are allowed to open or manipulate
documents in respective ways.
Password-protected security
Use this method to configure the security so that only those users who know the password can
open and manipulate a document. Select [Password (V4 compatible)] or [Password (128-bit V4
non-compatible)]. If the document is Ver. 4 or earlier, and protected with [Password (V4
compatible)], it can be opened with DocuWorks Ver. 4.x. If the document is protected with
[Password (128 bit V4 non-compatible)], it cannot be opened with DocuWorks Ver. 4.x, although
it offers more secure encryption.
Security using DocuWorks Electronic Signature
Electronic Signature is a unique function to DocuWorks. You can use this function if all of the
users create their own electronic signature and exchanges their credential information with one
another. It is useful for protecting documents within a relatively small group of users.
Security using a digital certificate
Use this to configure the security so that only those users who have a certificate issued by a
Certificate Authority (CA) can open and manipulate a document. You can use this function if all
of the users obtain public key certificates from a Certification Authority and exchange their
certificates with one another. It is useful for protecting documents within a large group or among
an unspecified number of users.

For a signature on a paper document, you can confirm the signer and the date that it was signed
by looking at it. For a digital signature, you can confirm that the signer himself/herself has created
the digital signature and that the document has not been modified since its signing by obtaining
its credential information to verify the digital signature. If there are multiple digital signatures for
a document, you can confirm the order in which they were signed. You can also restore the
document to the state immediately before or after each signature was appended.
Signed Documents
A signed DocuWorks file is shown with a signature mark in Thumbnail view of Desk.
ImportantDocuWorks Electronic Signature does not use digital certificates issued by a
Certification Authority. When you print DocuWorks documents marked with the
DocuWorks Electronic Signature imprint or the signature image of a Digital Certificate
onto paper documents, the paper documents can not be used as legal deeds or signed
documents.

9.6Security Using DocuWorks Electronic Signature
You can sign a document using a signature from the Electronic Signature Case. You can also
verify the trustworthiness of an electronic signature by comparing the signature in the Electronic
Signature Case with the impression on the document.
Configuration of DocuWorks Electronic Signature
Electronic Signature
An electronic signature is used to affix an imprint on a DocuWorks document page as you would
put a seal on a paper document. You must prepare the images you want to use for the imprint.
You can use bitmap files smaller than 9.5 MB as electronic signature images.
Electronic Signature Case
Store My Electronic Signature and Trusted Electronic Signatures. Set the password when
creating an Electronic Signature Case. This password is required when you open the Electronic
Signature Case.
My Signature
Use this signature when signing a document or opening an electronic signature-protected
document.
Trusted Signature
A Trusted Signature is an electronic signature to be collated when verifying the electronic
signature affixed on a document. It is also used when you configure the security based on
electronic signature.
Credential information of an electronic signature
Credential information is a DocuWorks document that contains information such as the
impression image, owner's name and expiration date of an electronic signature. It is used to have
others add your My Signature to their Electronic Signature Cases as their Trusted Signatures.

9.7Security Using a Digital Certificate
A digital signature generally means a signature made electronically, but in this manual it refers to
signing with the use of a private key possessed only by a specific user on DocuWorks documents,
based on the public key cryptographic technology. A person who receives a signed DocuWorks
document can obtain the signer's public key from the certificate to verify the signature. You can
confirm that the DocuWorks document has not been changed since it was signed and that the
signer himself/herself owns the private key.
Difference from DocuWorks Electronic Signature
DocuWorks Electronic Signature is designed to be used within a small group of people who know
one another. Using it on an external server or under a service contract with a third-party
organization is not assumed.
On the other hand, a digital certificate is a module based on standard specifications that
DocuWorks and other PKI applications can use in common, and is largely intended for use on the
Internet among a large number of people.
