In this video, you’ll learn how to use your iPhone or Android phone to convert an image or a photo (jpeg, png or gif) into an editable Word document. You can also use this technique to convert an image or photo of a table into an Excel spreadsheet.
With Microsoft’s new Office mobile app you can take advantage of optical character recognition (OCR) technology to read the text and numbers inside an image. No more manual transcribing from hardcopies! Just snap a picture and let the app do its magic. The new Office mobile app is available to download on Android and iOS. The Office app includes Word, Excel and PowerPoint apps. Whatever changes you make on the mobile will be synced to the cloud and available on all your other devices.
I also show you how to install the free Microsoft Office mobile app. Once we do that, I convert a photo of a page and then I convert a page of a book to text. I can then edit this text in Microsoft Word. I then covert a photo a table from a book into a table of data that I can edit inside Microsoft Excel.
You can also use this technique to convert scanned images to an Excel table.
