Tech Tips & Tricks: Scanning with An Android Phone

I love getting cookbooks from the library.  Cookbooks are my favourite non-fiction as it tends to be non-linear.  I can flip back and forth looking at sections or just flip until I find a photo of something I want to try.  However, I find that 3 weeks isn't usually enough time to try all the recipes I want, especially in the summer.  I also can't afford to buy books from the bookstore all the time, but I don't want to have to wait another 6 months to access the recipes.  As a result, I usually scan or type out the recipes that I want to try.

In this case, I decided to scan the recipes as I only have my Chromebook with which to work.  However, I didn't want to go through the effort of setting up the scanner on my father-in-law's computer as it is rather bulky.  I decided to see if I could find a way to scan the recipes I wanted without having to set up the scanner.

I just did a quick Google to see if I could find if it was possible.  Here's the link to the instructions:

I did manage to do the "scanning" of the recipes, but it would definitely be better for smaller items like receipts and stuff of that sort.
