Help with saving to Eaglefiler

I am new to Eaglefiler and before I commit my rather large database (collection of files I’ve gathered over the years in Devonthink) I want to try and understand something.
Basically, can I save files directly to an eaglfiler folder or is that bypassing the eaglfiler’s ability to index?
For example, I’m writing a word doc and am done with it and so I hit save to. Can I save directly to a designated Eaglefiler folder or must I go through a second stage?
Same goes for any program where you save something: Turbo Tax - save file, Corel Draw - save drawing etc.
Thanks

Yes, you can save new files directly into the To Import folder or anywhere in the Files folder hierarchy. Other rules related to this are documented here.
