What is Forkyz Scanner?

An Android app for scanning crossword puzzles from the camera, image files, or PDF. The puzzle can then be shared as an IPuz file.

Forkyz Scanner is a companion app to the Forkyz crossword app so that you can import any puzzle into Forkyz (or the crossword app of your choice).

Scanning is a multi-step process: scan the grid, then the columns of clues. The scan results can be edited to make corrections.

The app is somewhat heavyweight: it includes OpenCV for image processing and Tesseract for text recognition. Language packs for text recognition must be downloaded from settings before this feature can be used.
