MythosPDF

Copy text from a scan in a scanned travel itinerary from a phone

Make the words on a scan selectable so you can copy them into an email or document. 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.

Scanning with a phone

  • • 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.

What people change in a travel itinerary

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.
