MAKES IT A SNAP

TO CAPTURE

DOCUMENTS

BY J.R. BOOKWALTER

Remember the days when scanning

documents in digital form required bulky

hardware tethered to a personal computer?

With a decent smartphone and the right

app, you can now perform this task in a

few taps, creating shareable, cloud-friendly

files with surprisingly good results.

Better yet, many apps have the ability

to actually improve documents in

meaningful ways—like automatic

orientation correction, flatten curled pages,

crop unwanted content, and use optical

character recognition to make text in

scanned pages searchable.
