cards

2. Select
Capture or tap the large central Business card
scanner icon to start the camera.
3. Hold the business card in front of the camera and
take a picture of the card, see Camera on page 51. A
few camera settings are available. The picture is
displayed in the Business card scanner application.
4. If the picture is good enough you can choose either
to process it as a contact entry or to leave it and
process it later.
When you process the picture of a business card, most of
the text will be displayed in appropriate fields in the
contact entries. If there is information that the business
card scanner cannot place into a field, you can find it in
the tab of the contact’s entry. From there you can
copy text to the appropriate fields in the contact entry.
See more in Creating and editing contacts on page 58.

contact entries.

The contacts names from the processed batch are
displayed in Contacts. They are categorized in a
folder named
Business cards n, where n is the
