Box isn’t content with simply storing all your electronic documents, so it’s adding physical documents to the mix as well.</p><p>
Box said Thursday that the company has added document scanning to its
Box Capture application for the iPhone, allowing users to take a picture of a document, crop and trim it, and convert the output to a PDF format. After it’s been scanned and converted, the document can be saved to Box’s cloud, or shared to other users.</p><p>
However, Box Capture doesn’t extract readable text from the PDF document via optical character recognition—a task that some competing apps, like Microsoft’s Office Lens, perform. Users also may need to crop the document and adjust the shading, Box said.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3031691/data-center-cloud/box-captures-new-scanning-tool-lets-you-save-physical-documents-in-boxs-cloud.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
