[Hidden-tech] Google Drive scanning with iPhone JPG vs PDF

[Andrew Bellak]

Thanks for the suggestions.

Noah: "I would suggest using a dedicated document scanning app like 
Scanner Pro ( https://readdle.com/scannerpro )It will let you specify 
file size and format. It has OCR, and you can create custom workflows 
like uploading to DropBox, Google Drive, or other file services."

I was reminded of how I had downloaded Adobe Scan and never really 
played with it enough. I was able to save a photo scan to PDF that is 
500kb vs 3mb.

regards,

andrew
