How to quickly scan books and generate PDFS with mobile App?
A few days ago, a friend carried out a private message:
I need to scan a book of about 200 pages to make a PDF document. pdf editor freeCan I do this for free?
I am quite proud to say yes. The [Scan] function is completely free, and the [Generate PDF] function is free to use every day. Even if you run out today, you can automatically refresh the number of times the next day.
But given that the algorithms used to scan books are more complex, the scanning process will be more complex than a single scan. So everyone has prepared this article, a simple demonstration of how to quickly scan books through mobile phones.
Step 1: Open Scan-Scan-Surface book.
Step 2: The software will automatically recognize the left and right Outlines of the system page - click the button to take photos
Step 3: The software will automatically generate four edges up and down the page - Adjust the edges by clicking
Step 4: Done, continue scanning the next page!
Then generate pdf files or text recognition as needed.

However, while the App will do most of the work for us, there are a few caveats that we need to be aware of. Pay attention to these points, you can sweep the book quickly and well.
1. The distance between the mobile phone webcam and scanning technical documents is moderate.
The camera was too far away from the book to identify which page it was scanning. The camera was too close and the edge of the book was not on the picture, so naturally it was unrecognizable. Here are two examples of errors.
Left: Camera too close to the book. Horrified: camera too close to the book.
2. Contrast the scanned file with the background color.
The software will identify the outline according to the color difference, and if the colors are too close, the outline recognition will be wrong. In the image below, for example, Agee uses a very exaggerated state to demonstrate that the software might default to the range of white paper as the outline of the scanned document.
In addition, when the background is a stripe pattern with little color difference from the scanning technical file, the same situation may also occur, which is something we can avoid in advance.
Try not to put anything in the scan area.
In addition to the contrast between the scanning document and the background color, you also need to try to keep the scanning interface free of other debris. Below is an exaggerated demonstration done by Aji, which the software can confuse. Oh, are you scanning a book, a headphone case or a piece of A4 paper?
Master the above operation skills and pay attention to three tips, you can quickly use the phone to scan good books!
