5. Creating Your Clearances Page

You will need to scan your Act 34 and Act 151 Clearances into the computer and save them to a disk.

Scanning Clearances

Double click on the Epson Smart Panel icon on the desktop. Click on the scan and save icon. Place your image in the top right corner of the scanner face down and close the scanner. Press the green start button on the front of the scanner. A file savings settings box pops up. Choose the location where you wish to save your image. Then click OK. Another Save & View screen will pop up, save the file or save and view the file.

Repeat this step for your second clearance.

Adding Scanned Clearances to your Portfolio

In Microsoft FrontPage, open the file titled Act 34 from your CD.

Highlight the words "Place the scanned image of your clearance here."

Click "Insert" on the toolbar, scroll down and click "Picture", scroll down and click "From File". A box will appear where you will need to locate where your Act 34 Clearance is saved. If it is saved on a 3.5" floppy disk choose that from the drop down box, if it is saved on the hard drive of the computer select that from the box and then double click on the file that contains your Act 34 Clearance.

Repeat the above steps to insert your ACT 151 Clearance.

Creating Links From "Clearances Page" to Individual Clearances

After completing both your individual Act 34 and Act 151 clearances pages you can link those individual pages to the main clearance page.

To link the pages you must know what you saved each individual clearance page as, that is why it is important to use file names that are easy to remember.

In Microsoft FrontPage, open the file names Clearances from your CD.

Use the cursor to highlight the words Act 34. Right click on the highlighted words and scroll down and click on hyperlink or hyperlink properties.

A box will pop up called Insert Hyperlink.

Under the left column "Link to:" click on Existing File or Web Page.

To select an existing file, click on the drop down box titled "Look in:", find the location that you have saved your individual clearance page in and click on the file name that you saved it under.
