Retyping a printed page takes ages. Add a photo or scan and the text recognition (OCR) reads it, keeping the paragraphs; check the text, correct anything that was misread and download a DOCX file that opens in Microsoft Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice. Everything happens in your browser, so contracts, letters and notes stay private.
