Biz-Card Scan

Biz Card Scan allows you to take a close up image of the text
on a business card and then transfer the information to your
Contacts using optical character recognition (OCR). Once the
image has been captured, you have the option of scrolling
through the available fields of information that were
recognized by the OCR process.

Scanning a Business Card

Make sure that the business card can be clearly read before
taking the picture. If the printing contrasts with the
background, the program will have a greater chance of
recognizing the text. If the text is muted or blends into the
background, some or all of the text may not be recognized by
the scanning process.

2.

Twist and turn screen to a 90 degree angle. Using the

business card on a flat surface, making sure that the
text portion fits squarely on-screen.

on-screen.

Note:

Under certain circumstances, Biz-Card Scan may not
