Requirements

  • The application requires Android v2.3 or later.
  • Your Android device must have a camera.

How do I use it?

  1. Before the app can be used, you will need a physical print of the page images. You can either download a PDF file of the pages here and print it from a desktop computer, or use Google Cloud Print to print directly from your device. To use Google Cloud Print, use the menu bar button or press the menu button (on devices with a hardware menu button) and choose the "Print" option, and follow the prompts.
  2. Once the page images are printed, point the camera at the pages.
  3. To change the camera or camera resolution used, you can use the Settings menu. If you have a faster device, you might wish to use a higher-resolution camera setting.
