How Apple Notes scanner scans
- • Notes scans are cropped and straightened automatically and can be shared as a PDF.
- • Phone scanners photograph the page, straighten and crop it, and save the image into a PDF.
- • Photos carry perspective, uneven light and JPEG compression, and some apps add a hidden OCR text layer.
- • Camera foreshortening is fitted as a horizontal scale on each line, and the paper grain around the word is kept, so the new word sits in the photo like the old one.
Questions people ask
+Can I change several words at once?
Yes, if they are on the same line. Click the first word and Shift+click the last.
+What if a word cannot be changed invisibly?
You get the exact reason, such as a stamp in the way or a font that could not be identified, instead of a smudged page.
