Edit a scanned document
Edit a scanned photo or graphic
You can edit a scanned photo or graphic using the software you installed with the HP All-
in-One. Using this software, you can rotate or crop the image, as well as adjust the
brightness, contrast, and color saturation.
Edit a scanned document
Scanning text (also known as optical character recognition or OCR) enables you to bring
the content of magazine articles, books, and other printed matter into your favorite word
processor and many other programs as fully editable text. Learning to do OCR right is
important if you want to obtain the best results. Do not expect scanned text documents
to be letter-perfect the first time you use your OCR software. Using OCR software is an
art that takes time and practice to master. For more information about scanning
documents, especially documents containing both text and graphics, see the
documentation that came with your OCR software.
