Dicas Profissionais
- •Sharper, well-lit photos give much better results than blurry or shadowed ones.
- •Hold your phone parallel to the document — angled photos confuse the recognizer.
- •For best accuracy, the text in your image should be at least 20 pixels tall.
- •Got a multi-language document? Run it once for each language and merge the results.
- •For receipts, menus, and small text, the searchable PDF option is great — you keep the original picture and get searchable text on top.
- •Handwriting works but accuracy is much lower than for printed text. Use clean printed text wherever possible.
