How Brother MFC scans

  • • Office multifunction printers scan at 200 to 300 dpi, often in grayscale or colour, and many can add a searchable text layer.
  • • Pages fed through the document feeder can come out slightly skewed.
  • • Even office scans give the font match plenty to work with. Very coarse scans can be refused when the redraw would not be faithful.

Questions people ask

+How accurate is it?

It depends on the scan. Straight, sharp, well lit pages at 300 dpi read best.

+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.
