Not just PDF, so to speak.
Google continues to improve its cloud service. In Drive appeared A small but long-awaited feature: now scanned documents can be saved not only in PDF, but also in JPEG.
Previously, users of the Google Drive mobile app could only scan documents and upload them to the cloud in PDF format. Recently, Google announced an innovation: now you can select the JPEG format when scanning.
The update is already being distributed among users of the Google Drive Android app. According to the developers, the process of full deployment of the update will take no more than 15 working days.
To scan a document into Google Drive, you need to follow a few simple steps:
Open the Google Drive app. Click the camera icon in the lower right corner of the screen. Point the device camera at the document (the blue line will indicate the boundaries of the scanning area). Take a photo of the document. Edit the image if necessary. Click the “Done” button. Enter a file name or select the suggested one. Select the save format (PDF or JPEG). Click the “Save” button.
The new feature is available to all Google Workspace users, including individual subscribers and personal Google account holders.
