I need to legibly scan/digitize whole newspapers. The sheets are roughly 34 x 24 inches (86 x 60 cm). The scanner on my printer is way too small. I’ve tried several (Android) phone apps, but they only operate on single photos, making small text illegible.
It feels like there should be an app for this. A document scanner that stitches images together like a panoramic photo. But I haven’t found anything quite suitable.
I would greatly prefer a free (or cheap) solution. This is hopefully a one-time thing. I don’t want to buy a flatbed scanner or send the documents away to some company.
I’d appreciate your thoughts.
You could try something like this Microsoft Image Compose Editor that stitches together a bunch of overlapping single images. This is a very old tool I had to research for uni but I’m sure there are more modern apps that can do the same.
