The Pocket PDF scanner with integrated OCR, known as Microsoft Lens (formerly Microsoft Office Lens), is an essential tool for enhancing productivity and digitizing your documents effortlessly. This powerful app trims, enhances, and makes pictures of whiteboards and documents readable, transforming them into clear, professional-quality images.

With Microsoft Lens, you can easily convert images into multiple formats such as PDF, Word, PowerPoint, and Excel files.
