text on a business card and then transfer the information to
your Contacts using optical character recognition (OCR).

scrolling through the available fields of information that
were recognized by the OCR process.

taking the picture. If the printing contrasts with the

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.
