In the App Store we can find a large number of applications that allow us to scan documents. One of the best known and the one that offers the best results is Readdle's Scanner Pro. The guys at Adobe have just launched a new application called Adobe Scan, an application that allows us to scan documents, but also allows us to recognize the text of the documents we scan to later share it with other applications or services. Thanks to this app we can turn our device into a portable scanner with text recognition that also allows us to convert all scanned content to PDF format.
Adobe Scan Features
- Scan any type of document, receipt, form, note, business cards ...
- Thanks to character recognition, we can extract the text from scanned documents to share them with other applications to be able to edit them, or extract parts of it to use in other documents.
- All files can be stored in Adobe Document Cloud to be able to access them from anywhere we are.
- Adobe Scan allows us to edit scanned files, convert them into Microsoft Office files, fill in forms, sign them ...
Adobe has launched an application with which we can not only scan documents, but we can also edit them in PDF format, being a two in one. Readdle offers us the same functions with the applications Scanner Pro and PDF Expert, both applications can be used unlimitedly by buying it directly.
However, in order to take full advantage of the application, we must pgrab a subscription of 9,99 euros per month, an excessively high price for what it really offers, since for little more we can buy the applications that Readdle offers us without having to pay every month. In addition, thanks to the latest application of these applications, it offers us total integration between the two, allowing us (in the iPad version), to share documents between them simply by dragging them.
