2

Use even light

Avoid a lamp position that casts your shadow across the page. Check for glare, especially on glossy paper.

3

Align the camera

Position the camera as parallel to the page as practical. Include all four corners and leave a small border around the document.

4

Focus and capture

Focus on the text and hold the camera steadily. Take a test image before capturing multiple pages.

5

Check readability and privacy

Open the saved image and read small text at full size. Retake blurred pages and share the image only through an appropriate private channel if it contains personal details.

도움말 및 문제 해결

  • Keep pages in order when photographing a multi-page document.
  • A readable capture matters more than decorative background styling.
