How HP Smart app scans

  • • HP Smart can scan from a printer or from the phone camera and save as PDF.
  • • Scanning software saves the scanner's page images into a PDF, sometimes with an OCR text layer.
  • • Resolution and colour mode are whatever you chose in the scan settings.
  • • Scans at 300 dpi in grayscale or colour give the best results; hidden OCR layers are detected and updated.

Questions people ask

+Will the address become a link?

No. On a scan it is part of the picture of the page, so it stays printed text.

+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.
