Full length review: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5s948BJhRI = Important Notes = Garbage in, garbage out - make sure text is sharp and large enough for recognition. **Make sure text is upright (horizontally aligned to the app)** Beware of camera rotation! Handwritten text will not work. Text on top of unclean background (images or borders/lines in excel sheet) will not work. PDF source is not supported. OCR for Gujarati, Persian and Punjabi is experimental and the result is very bad.
