or damaging them.

useful features and integrated with many imaging algorithms such as page turning
detection. which can automatically scan when detecting a page has been turned; it can
also enhance the text of scanned documents with background color purification; recognize
the documents by using the built-in OCR function; correct for curved pages and erase
fingers from the scanned image; it quickly scans and easily converts scanned pages into
more useful formats such as JPEG, PDF, searchable PDF, Word, Excel, and Text files.

archived very quickly.
