Must have app for scanning - better than Adobe
Ive used this app for 3 years, and its been great!
I tried it today, and noticed an issue running on OSX Yosemite -
I contacted the developer who replied very quickly stating that he was aware of the issue and had submitted an update to apple which was awaiting approval.
(The issue is semi minor - I cant delete the last page in a document - something I can live without until apple approves the update)
Overall I cant say enough good things about this app - Ive been using it since nearly the beginning - Ive scanned 3000+ Documents using this app and its fantastic.
Its recieved regular updates the whole time and has gotten better and better, although honestly, it was pretty awesome to start with.
Heres why its great:
I scan everything - Ive not put paper in a file cabinet in over 3 years.
I have an Epson GT-S50 sheet feed scanner that scans something like 25 pages a minute on the fastest speed.
I started with Acrobat - using the "twain" driver - it was slow and I had to click like 3 or 4 times just to scan.
Then I found PDFScanner in the app store - what a difference - PDFScanner uses Apples image capture driver to control the scanner - what used to be a bunch of clicks with Adobe Acrobat is now a single Click in PDF scanner.
Overall, its fast, really fast.
but, thats not all...
Fast would be great, but files need to be reasonably small also. Im happy to say the scans I do with PDFScanner are as small or smaller than the files generated by Acrobat.
In the early days- I had still kept acrobat around for one thing: Small page sizes like receipts - Acrobat is great at detecting the page size automatically.
As it turns out PDF Scanner has a nice option to deal with this - it still scans full size pages, but once the scan is done, you can crop the page. (You can either crop all pages at once, or one at a time, and its not necessary for all pages to be the same size)
Overall I cant reccomend this program enough - Its well worth the money and 5 stars!!
