  2. Archive: you can "Add" new folders under Root path, then just drag the files to different folders, click "Properties" to define category and related information (you can also add new category by clicking "Category" icon);
  3. Search: click "Search" button to define search items, you can set search path, create name, category and other detail information for quickly searching;
  4. Export: if you want to distribute stored files with others, you can export as images, PDF files, or directly send email or print out.
