Intent

Paper has to become a file someone else can open. Scanning documents is camera capture, crop, contrast, and a PDF or image you can send — not a full office suite and not a note app that buries the file in a stack. OCR is useful when you must search the text later; it is optional when the job is 'email this form'. The failure is a pretty preview that will not export, or a watermark on every page of a contract. A contract page that only lives as a preview is not delivered. Edge distortion on a warped receipt should be correctable.

What matters for this task

Does the crop find the page on a dark table?
Can you export a multi-page PDF without a watermark?
Is the text searchable if you need OCR?
Does it work when the network is gone?
