How Doxie scans
- • Doxie is a small portable sheet fed scanner that runs on battery.
- • Sheet fed and flatbed desktop scanners capture pages at 300 dpi or more under even light.
- • Many can skip blank pages and add a searchable text layer.
- • Sharp, evenly lit pages are the best case for redrawing a word invisibly.
Questions people ask
+Why are scans so large?
Every page is a full picture, often in colour at high resolution.
+Do I need to convert the scan to Word first?
No. MythosPDF edits the scanned page itself. There is no conversion, so the page keeps its look.
