Help with Prizmo please

Dear Listers, I've purchased the latest Prizmo 3.1.4 and installed it onto my iPhone 5C. I thought it would be a useful application to have in order to scan and have it read to me an occasional page of text such as a letter or a business card or a short text that one might be given by a friend

Hi Andrew, I will try to remember all of the tips I have read in the past for Prizmo. 1. Make sure you have plenty of light. If you are using natural sun light, make sure to be facing the window, so you don't cast a shadow onto the text to be scanned. 2. I use my iPhone in portrait mode

The reason I like Prizmo better than TextGrabber is that you have the option to easily do multiple page documents. And, Prizmo has a translation feature as well. If you have a document that has a more complex layout, I think Prizmo does a better job. But, if you are mostly doing single page
