# Reorganisation of tabs when importing items

Posted by [Marshall Parr](https://blog.townswebarchiving.com/pastview/community/author/marshall-parr) on February 3, 2022 at 3:02 PM

We have made some changes to the organisation of settings available to you, when importing new items to PastView.

Please note that:

- Purchasing options have been moved to the ‘General tab’
- Options to OCR images on import have been moved to the image tab
- The PDF tab has been renamed ‘Document’
- The ‘Document’ tab now has options to extract text. This is covered in more detail in a further notification  

You will find help messages in the file import window to signpost where settings have been relocated. Our hope is that this will make the process clearer and more logical.
