Perceptive Experience is an HTML5 web client that can access and view documents in the Imaging System on all operating systems. Unlike WebNow Perceptive Experience does not "look" like the Perceptive Content desktop client. Thus there is "get acquainted" period in learning its use.

• Perceptive Experience - Overview and Getting Started 
• Perceptive Experience - Searching for and viewing documents 
• Perceptive Experience - Processing documents in workflow
