Qipit: Free Conversion to PDF from Docs Taken with Cellphone Camera
In a previous post, we showed you tips how to scan documents, white board, business card with your camera and automatically convert to data with ScanR. Today we introduce you to another alternative free solution called Qipit.
Qipid is a free service for mobile phone users through which you can send photographs of documents, whiteboards, business cards and handwritten notes captured with a high resolution cellphone camera to an online server where it is converted into a digital copy (PDF) and sent to recipients via Email or Fax.
Unlike ScanR, QiPid provide input in non editable PDF format. So data is not usable beside reading it. However QiPid provides some nifty facilities such document tagging with keywords for archiving purposes as well as publish them to websites.
To scan and send a captures photo via email or fax:
- Take a picture of the item (document, whiteboard, business card or handwritten note) from your mobile phone camera
- Prepare to send the picture via picture message (MMS) or mobile email to color@qipit.com (for a color copy) or copy@qipit.com (for a black and white copy).
- Enter the recipients email address or fax number in the body of the message or text field (not in the subject area). Fax number should be typed in the international format i.e. + countrycode faxnumber e.g +14256158748 4. If you want to send the qipit copy to more than one email address or fax number, separate by comma
- Send the message/email And of course, the same thing can be done from a PC by sending a picture taken with a digital camera to color@qipit.com (for a color copy) or copy@qipit.com (for a black and white copy) from an email client such as Outlook/Thunderbird or any webmail service.
