    Very clever, Tom! I love figuring out stuff like this and enjoy seeing others doing the same. My scanner box was an inexpensive one that I found on the USA Amazon but they shipped it to me in Australia. It's cardboard and has some 'fancy' sticky foam things so you can align your phone up perfectly in future once you've found what works. The only issue (which the one you showed won't have that problem) is that it can be too dark inside the box. I sorted that out with a small torch/flashlight. But the addition of the Rocketbook cutout and app is pure gold. ❤ The only Rocketbooks I could find that ship to Australia are American ones that are in their paper format. Ideally I'd need A4 and A5 sizes for scanning my own papers.

    wow this is so helpful!!
    im also disappointed that in 2022 our handwriting to typed text conversion is still really lacking when it comes to scanning our paper written notes. i feel like this would be easily curbed by apple if, like setting up siri and programming our voice, we were made to write out and scan some specific sentences so the programs can better understand our handwriting.
    Any way, in the meantime, this should be really helpful so thank you!

    Hi @TomSolid, I also like my rocket book. One thing I wish I could do, is keep my diagrams while converting my handwriting into typed text. People can't read my handwriting, and the OCR only captures the text in an unformatted way. I really need both, any way to do that?

    • @paperlessmovement
      @paperlessmovement  Před 2 lety

      Good question. To my understanding it will only convert your text. If you forward it to tools like Evernote, you can keep both though while still being searchable. 👍

    If you were doing a whole notebook (for example - a novel written by hand in a book) then 1/ Is there a way of doing page after page of this (maybe hundreds) and having them in the right order? 2/ If you have already scanned in the pages, then is there anyway of using your hack without re-scanning them all in one at a time?
    I too looked for a good way to do this for my novel a good while back (ie take an already written notebook and turn it into type), and ended up giving up, because none of the OCR systems worked very well. Will be very interested to see if this does the trick. All the ones I tried had so many errors, it just wasn’t worth it.

      @@paperlessmovement To improve your setup a bit the scanning box could have a glass sheet close to the paper with spacers underneath. The rocketbook app scans pages sequentially pretty fast (as you actually demonstrated in the video so I guess Stuart Brown didn't watch it all)
      so you could do a book of handwritten notes ..."quicker"
      Also, no need for a rocketbook. Any notebook in the oven will blank with those pens!

Someone has to figure this out! I don't have time for all of these steps. Who can remember all of them anyway. Doesn't allow me to focus on my business. Need a more streamlined process.
