[QUOTE="flyboyy, post: 1950946, member: 328692"] Easy peasy. I discovered it by accident. I am doing a lot of scanning dictionaries and transcribing that into a document and since the dictionaries are large, I hit on the idea of taking a photo of the entries and then putting the pics onto the desktop and just typing them into the document. At some point I selected a section to clarify it for typing and i noticed that I could save it to the clipboard so I could save a lot of typing. Then I figured out that if I was careful and only photographed the column and not adjacent columns it did a better job of transcribing. So you simply carefully take the picture of only the column you want, (remove the date stamp function) and ; get it onto the desktop using "Preview" which is automatic on my computer, and then ; select it ; go "command c" (to [B]c[/B]opy it to the clipboard) ; Then click on the document where you want to save it and ; Command V (to sa[B]v[/B]e it) ; and then check to make sure it is a good copy. I don't have a smartphone so I have no idea if they are better. [/QUOTE]
