This is Motorola One 5G Ace and today I'm going to demonstrate that you can scan a document
0:05
and later transform it into a PDF file on this device. So in order to do that I'm usually using the Google Drive app
0:17
That's the most convenient way, at least the one that I know of, especially considering
0:24
the fact that in most scenarios the Drive app will come pre-installed with the system
0:29
So you will not have to download any additional apps, but if you do not have it just get it
0:35
for free from Play Store, then launch the Drive app, sign into your Google account if necessary
0:41
As you can see, in my case the verification has been requested, so I will quickly enter
0:47
the password to my Google account over here. And you know what, before I will proceed, let me remove my previous documents that I
0:59
have over here. So once you're ready to take a scan, tap at the plus button or plus sign over here
1:07
choose scan option, grant Drive the camera permission or camera access. Once the camera interface gets launched, take the document that you were looking to take
1:17
a scan of, lay it as flat and straight in front of you as possible, since the better
1:24
scan we will take, the better outcome we will get as the PDF file
1:30
Then align it with the camera, make sure that your document occupies the whole viewfinder
1:35
space and take a photo. Then look at the result, check the results that you've gotten, see whether you are satisfied
1:45
with it, if not, redo the picture. If you are ready to proceed, then proceed
1:54
In here, at the following interface, we are able to, for example, crop the image
2:00
As you can see, it has been automatically cropped incorrectly, so I will edit what part
2:08
of the photo will result in the, or will be in the eventual PDF file
2:14
Then you can also trim off the edges, for example. So you can also decide whether you would like for your scan to be in color or black
2:28
and white. And in here, once you are ready to proceed, just tap at the save button, rename the document
2:35
if necessary, change the folder that you would like to save it to if necessary as well, and
2:41
then hit that save button at the bottom right corner. And once the file gets uploaded to Drive, you can see the scan that you've, uh, well
2:53
I mean the outcome that you've gotten. And here's mine. It looks like a decent scan, if you ask me
3:00
Alrighty, so that would be it for this video, guys. Thanks for watching, thanks for your attention, and buh-bye
