The document scanner finds the page edges, straightens the page and recognises Korean and English text. You get a PDF and a text file on your PC.

Steps

  1. Start the scanner

    On the phone tap Scan document › Start scanning. Point the camera at the page; it is captured when the edges are found. Add more pages if needed.

  2. Send it to the PC

    Tap Send PDF and text to PC and choose the PC. The files arrive in Downloads\Personal Bridge.

Requirements

The scanner uses Google’s on-device scanner and text recognition, so the phone needs Google Play services. Scanning happens on the phone; the images aren’t sent anywhere else.
