SCRIBE

SCRIBE is an online document conversion system that transforms text and image-based file types into different formats. SCRIBE is automatically installed in every Canvas course. Scribe is recommended for scanned .pdfs.

A SCRIBE tutorial approximately 6 minutes long. Scribe is recommended for scanned .pdfs.

Scribe works with files, Google Docs, and URL links, ensuring they are active and properly formatted. Scribe will also run OCR through a file. Scribe OCR recognizes text, proofreads OCR data, and creates fully digitized documents.
