Hi,

So I have a large collection of a long-running football magazine which I want to sell as it takes up too much space. Before i do I want to scan them in using my iPhone or iPad - whichever has the best camera at the time I start this project - so i have a digital archive of my collection. Obviously vital to this is text recognition so that I can search out keywords quite easily.

I have taken a look at Scannable and seemed quite impressed with the few samples I tried. These magazines can be quite text-heavy at times with a lot of small font but it seemed to pick up most stuff. The question I have is whether any of you would recommend anything better and / or if there are any issues you have experienced using Scannable on a more protracted basis than I have.

Thanks, C.
