Creating Documents from Microsoft Office

Office Integration is a Laserfiche component that allows users to take advantage of Laserfiche features when working with Microsoft Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, and Outlook messages in their native Microsoft Office applications. Using Office Integration, you can quickly send files to Laserfiche directly from Office applications, update electronic documents already in your repository from within their native Office applications and easily attach Laserfiche documents to Microsoft Outlook e-mails. You can also take advantage of Laserfiche metadata, versioning, and check in/check out features without closing your document. See Using the Laserfiche Office Integration for more information.

The Laserfiche Office Integration is supported with both the Laserfiche Windows client and the Laserfiche web client. Office Integration can be included as part of your Laserfiche Windows lient installation when you first install it. With the Laserfiche web client, you will be prompted to install Office Integration when you first open an Office document. See Installing Office Integration with the Laserfiche Web Client for more information.

Note: If you are using the Laserfiche web client and you already have the Laserfiche Windows client installed, the two installations will share the same Office Integration installation.
