Re: I did it! Prizmo and the standscan
Hello everyone. I got Prismo and the Stand Scan pro working. This is an excellent low cost OCR solution. Thanks for your help.

Re: I did it! Prizmo and the standscan
Hey there lori, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, I updated to version 7.1 yesterday and was busy making friends with the new upbeat Siri! Now, for some of your questions: quick capture is the way to go if you want to see what information you've got on your piece of paper or two OC are it and send it off to another app. It is the most straightforward of your options and I tend to use it more often than not. Yesterday, for example, I sent a small extract from my newspaper which I had obtained with the use of Prizmo and the quick capture mode. I just used the copy function and then pasted it into the bottom of my email. So, this wasn't something I wanted to keep but merely to use. I could have kept it for sure, I could have sent it to another app, pasted it into an email, as I did, all, I am sure, there are many other options. As for the create new document mode, I use this if I want to make a multi page copy which I want to be able to read page by page consecutively as if it were one file. It is also easier and quicker to use the multipage documents because you can just keep replacing the page and taking another shot, particularly well suited to the use of the stand Scan pro. You should play with this mode. However, a small caveat for you, it will depend upon your needs, you mentioned you will need to OCR some forms etc, now, I did this last year: firstly, I needed to read the content of the forms, so, I OC are then. And then I needed to create image files of them because I needed to sign the final page and email them back to the original sender. To do this one needs to choose image rather than text. Once a document has been OC ared it will not look at all like the original document. All formatting is gone etc. So, if you need to keep copies of forms etc just take an image copy and not a text copy. In this particular case, I created two different documents with Prizmo. One which was in text format which has been recognised so I could read it, the other simply an image file which I could not read that I needed to keep a copy off. Finally on the page by needed to sign, I signed the original paper document took an image copy of it and could post it sorry email it back to my original sender. Does this make sense? I know you have many more questions but perhaps this is enough to get to practising and defining what it is you actually need to do with your documents. Something important to note, within the space of a couple of days, you, have become a power user of Prizmo and this is due to the efficacy of the stand ScanPro, something worth observing, I think.

Hi Sandy, I placed my guides around my phone on top of the standscan after I got my phone lens camera positioned over the hole and I took some pictures and practiced and I had no problems with the phone positioning anymore. But now I have some more questions to ask about Prizmo. 1. What is the difference between quick capture and creat new document? A lot of my picture taking will be applications, authorization forms and other important documents. So when I'm taking pictures of these important documents, do I use the quick capture or creat new document or does it even matter? 2. When using quick capture and after taking the picture it processes and then it says results. How do I get to the results? 3. At the bottum of the screen of the result screen, there are three buttons save,copy and open in . The save button I know will save the document but where does it save the document at? The copy button I know is to copy the text and I'm assuming it clips it to the clip board? But where is the clip board at? The open in button is where you can I assume put your text document in Ever note or dropbox. 4. I noticed I can either use i cloud, Ever note or dropbox, so which one is best to use? I have all three of these. When I use quick capture or creat new document, do I swipe over until Ihear these 2 options or do I just double tapp on the creat new document or quick capture at the bottom of the main screen? 5. When I use the creat new document, and I have taken the picture do I then swipe over to the done button in the top right corner of the phone or double tapp on the done button at the right bottum corner of the phone? When I tapp on the done button at the bottum right corner of the phone it will take me to the pages screen. It will say page one of one . In the left top corner of the phone is a button called documents and if you swipe over from left to right the next function button will say pages,edit, page one of one, at new page, text, change text type, and export document. I'm not sure what all these

See if this helps. It is a brief manual that was posted a while ago. http://www.sendspace.com/pro/dl/m6o3qe If we can't look at ourselves, and ask, why? then where does the learning start? - Original Message - From: Lori Dent To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2014 8:10 PM Subject: I did it!

I'm not sure what all these function buttons are for. Can you explain? These button functions are in all four corners on the phone and at the top and bottum of the phone. 2. How do I name or rename a document after I have created a new documenmt? 3. I think I've come across a button called rebuy. What does this button mean and what does it do? Sorry for the long and langthly post but I didn't want to forget anything and I hope I covered all my questions hear. Anyone who responds back to this post I will very much appreciate it. Thanks.
