Dear friends, thank you for your valuable suggestions. I am not using KNFB reader. I take images using an app called camscanner. this app processes the images for darkness etc, and make them readable to OCR softwares. then I convert them to PDF and copy to my computer. pdf option is available in camscanner. I feed thus obtained images to Kurzweil and get the converted KES files. I have prepared my own stand for holding the mobile. though not very good and heavy in weight, it is portable. I want to use this for scanning books and not for bills, receipts, etc. I am already having a 5MP camera with samsung core prime. but it cannot scan large pages like A4 and above. also, I cannot scan 2 pages at a time as the quality and resolution of images will be reduced. I am scanning small books with it without problem. any further suggestion will be appreciated.
