It’s perfect! Do you guys already do this?
I open a letter, I take it’s picture with FairScan. The FairScan-folder on my android device gets syncthinged to the ingest folder for Paperless-ngx on my “server”. Paperless imports it, deletes the file and sets the new documents tag to inbox. I decide if the document goes to the binder for important stuff, or if I just toss it in a binder with all the paper I most likely will never touch again. Next time I look at Paperless, I edit all documents with the inbox tag and remove the tag.
Why don’t you use the mobile app? Mine works just fine
At least I think it does. Maybe all the docs that I upload are lost. Who knows 😅
Exactly what I came here to say, paperless app already have a scanner no need to fiddle with file sync and stuff 😊
Haha, thanks. I didn’t know this existed! I already use Syncthing, so that’s no problem. And I like that FairScan rotates my picture and adjusts it’s angle. If the Paperless Uploader-app does this as well, I might use it. Taking a look right now!
I use https://f-droid.org/packages/de.astubenbord.paperless_mobile
Does it detect the four corners and adjusts the angle to make it flat 2D?
It does, sometimes… but it is not a huge PITA.
I need to see if FairScan would do a better job.
