Getting started
Use Capture to launch a camera, or Import to start with an image from the Gallery. After you capture or import a single image, the edge detect and color adjust screens will appear.
Turbo import
Enabling Turbo import (on the settings screen), allows you to import multiple images and use the scan gallery to batch process or convert one at a time (by clicking on a thumb-nail).
Projects
Scans are auto-organized into collections called Projects. You can change project names by long-pressing a project box, and move scans from one project to another using "Move."
Selecting scans
Select scans by clicking them; select all scans by long pressing any scan; select all scans in a group by long pressing on the group's text box.
Actions
To operate on a group of scans: select them and pick an action button.
OCR
To run optical character recognition (OCR): choose JPEG or PDF from the action buttons and share the scans with Docs Upload OCR. You can also run OCR by sharing scans with third party apps, including Google Goggles and Evernote.
Business cards
To add a scanned business card to your contacts: share it with Google Goggles.
Archiving scans
To delete scans from the database: use the "Remove" action. The JPEG file for a deleted scan remains on the SD card and can be re-imported here: Manage archived scans.
Expunging scans
To delete scans permanently, including JPEG files: enable "Expunge" in the settings. Note: your phone's built in gallery app may not detect that a JPEG file has been deleted. Tell gallery to re-scan the SD card now.
