I'm getting used to it also but was pleasantly surprised last night, when I
finally mastered getting the hands still, straight and inline with the page.
I managed to scan a few straightforward A4's then a couple of packages. One
was over the counter medication which read well and the other was a box of
stuffing mixture which I did manage, but not on the first try. I'll never
be the world's greatest at scanning, but this sure has beaten everything
else I've ever tried with the IPhone and I'm well pleased.

Hello All,
After reading all of the posts, I went and checked to see if batch mode was
on, but couldn't tell at first. I did see "process pages or something like
that, so I guess I was. This was late last night, so I haven't had a chance
to test the app out again. However, I was able to import a PDF file and have
it read to me. That was pretty amazing in itself. Oh by the way, I'm using
an iPhone6 with iOS 8.1. Thanks all for pointing out the batch mode. I'm not
sure if I'll use it to scan the manual or not. I'm still getting use to
using the app.
Best,
Eileen

Also, if you're using the app on a 4S, things tend to be slower overall.
Thanks,

Hi,
I bet you are in batch mode and, every time you take a picture it is
added to your file but is not read. Go to the batch mode button and
double tap it and you probably will have all the pages read.

Sometimes the reader takes a very long time to ocr especially on food
packages etc.

Subject: KNFB Reader Not Reading The Text After Scanning
Hello All,
I am using the KNFB Reader app to scan a manual I just got today after
the installation of my new dishwasher. However, I find it a bit odd or
strange in getting KNFB Reader to OCR the text after the picture is
taken. Here are the steps I take:
1: I approximate the center of the page with the iPhone's camera.
2. I use the "field of view report" to make sure that all 4 corners are
visible and the orientation is correct.
3. I tap on the "take picture" button. The camera of the KNFB Reader does
flash because I can see the light from the flash go off.
4. After step 3, the app does not open the next page for reading the OCR
text from what had just been scanned.
I have closed out all apps in the app chooser including the KNFB Reader
app. When I reopen it, I receive the same behavior with no text read
after the picture has been taken. Do I need to perform a hard reset in
order to get the app to function properly? Please advise as I would like
to scan this with the KNFB Reader app.
Thanks in advance.
Warmest regards,
Eileen
