The scanning feature is probably the most interesting novelty. It allows you to scan a PDF document and send it automatically to your account. That’s really a great feature cause we can easily save our documents online now.

You can also crop your photo, choose to keep your document in color or black and white, change the image quality and paper size. If you are in a well light environment, you will get very good scanning results. This is not the case when the light is not sufficient.
