1.Capturing images<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

If working on a laptop\/desktop\/tablet – the simplest method would be to take a photograph using your phone\/tablet camera app, then email the file to yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

–       Take the image in a well-lit environment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

–       Check that the image is clear<\/strong>, and any handwriting is legible<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

–       Email to yourself or share to your preferred cloud storage e.g. O365<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if you feel the photograph does not show a clear, readable image,<\/strong> we recommend using a scanning app \u2013 such as Microsoft Office Lens Android<\/a> | iOS<\/a>, or Apple iOS Notes Scanner<\/a>, to capture your images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
