Doc OCR - Book PDF Scanner

Straightforward and easy to use- it’s become my go-to for all kinds of personal and professional situations when I need to make sure I have a copy of any documents. Streamlines things for me, especially for items I don’t necessarily need hard copies, but do want a transaction record. I had no idea how much I would end up using it when I first downloaded it to try! Updating because platform seems to have changed over time. I can no longer email docs from app and faxing is ridiculously expensive for multi page documents. Disappointed in these points. I paid for an upgrade thinking that would take care of the email aspect but I was wrong- still no go!

I am a big hobbyist for scanning books. I even have a $400 book scanner. This app makes it look so easy. Beautifully dewarps using the lines of text for curvature correction. I wish you would release a book scanning app that would split the pages at the middle. Will make scanning so fast and I can sell my scanner 😀 One feature request for DocOCR. After scan correction, I can resize, set color or rotate. How about crop? I sometimes want to crop the image only after flattening it, for best results. That’s missing right now. If you can dewarp so beautifully, cropping would be a piece of cake for you.

I am extremely impressed. As of the day I write this, I haven't found a Mac OSX app that does the same thing. Auto warp correction, deskew and sharpen far exceeded expectations. Enhancement requests: a button to convert to grayscale, and a button to rotate in 90 degree increments (your wheel is cool and useful, but not ideal as the only way to rotate). Simply put: this app is a necessity for taking pictures of book pages before OCR process begins. Great app!
