Another Prizmo question

Hi Sandy, I've been practicing with using the Prizmo app off and on. I practice with it for a while then I put it up and go back to it later. But my question is when I go to use the quick capture button to take a picture of what ever I'm taking and after the picture has been taken it

The reason I like Prizmo better than TextGrabber is that you have the option to easily do multiple page documents. And, Prizmo has a translation feature as well. If you have a document that has a more complex layout, I think Prizmo does a better job. But, if you are mostly doing single page
