Edge detection works best, if you use a high contrast single color background.

3. Verify that edges have been correctly detected.
If the edge detection miscalculates a corner, you can drag it to match
the documents edges by pointing at the pink line with your finger.
You can rotate the document by holding one finger and then making a circle.

Spooler (Text recognition)
You can get the text recognised and searchable by running the documents in the Spooler. After the recognition has been done, you can search for words within the documents and the matching words will be highlighted.





This seems nice and OCR works surprisingly well so far. However I wished it would be a more straight forward process. Worse — I don’t see a way to forward just the scanned text results.
If I convert and mail just a simple paragraph it creates a 1MB PDF document (that is searchable in google docs) whereas the text is maybe 100 words (=a few bytes).
Please give an option to export just the OCR result. Thanks.
