The introduction of smartphones have really contributed a lot in making our day to day activities more easier. Mobile phones have gone beyond just calling and texting to becoming a part of our life. The camera on smartphone has gone from just taking pictures to doing a whole lot more like solving simple mathematics problems, taking measurements, scanning of documents and lots more.

Have you ever been in that kind of situation where you probably want to scan a business card, recipient on the go or you just have a very urgent document to scan but you have no access to a scanner. As I said earlier, your phone camera can now do more than just taken pictures. You can now easily scan documents with it and even convert to PDF.

Although it's not as good as your physical printer but it still gets the job done. Most of this apps even have OCR (optical character recognition) feature which lets you extract text from images by converting scanned documents into real characters.
