– Select document mode before taking the scan However, if you feel the photograph does not show a clear, readable image, we recommend using a scanning app – such as Microsoft Office Lens Android | iOS, or Apple iOS Notes Scanner, to capture your images. – Email to yourself or share to your preferred cloud storage e.g. – Check that the image is clear, and any handwriting is legible. – Take the image in a well-lit environment If working on a laptop/desktop/tablet – the simplest method would be to take a photograph using your phone/tablet camera app, then email the file to yourself.
