![]() It's as essential to my wellbeing as my CPAP machine. If someone stole my ScanSnap, or if a meteorite landed on it, I would buy a replacement immediately. But when I think about the hours and hours of time wasted waiting for my HP flatbed scanner to creak across a document, the price seems very low. The downside, if you can call it that, is the high price tag. ![]() The only time it jammed was when I tried to stack too many of the water-damaged documents through it. The software straightens out the images and orients them right-side up. Can stack not only image files but also together with the various files. ![]() It is so easy to scan stuff, and its transcription of text is so good, that I now scan business cards, menus, user manuals, and any other paper document I might want to look at again. For a simple document filing solution, create searchable PDF documents that. The other day I had to search for a mortgage document from my files while I was away from home and I pulled it up on my phone in less than a minute. That means my documents can be found by entering keywords into Evernote's search field from my Evernote phone app. The SnapScan software discards the sides that are blank and has a sensor that detects when two pages go through the feeder at the same time (which rarelyĮvernote's character recognition is almost flawless. It also runs a character recognition routine on your documents so you can search for them later.) This first few times I scanned to Evernote, I carefully checked to make sure that both sides of each page had been scanned correctly. It saves these files on your computer and on Evernote's servers so you don't have to worry about losing your data. (If you don't know about the previously reviewed Evernote, it's an outstanding online service that accepts images, sound files, notes, scans of documents, and just about anything else you want to throw in it. I configured my SnapScan to send scanned documents as PDF files to my Evernote account, although this is not required.
