Anyone used iPad for OCR, proofreading or editing book images?
I've never owned a single Apple device, Android gal here, but the new iPad Pro 10.5 is tempting me as a tablet. It would be nice to see how my ePubs perform in apps on iOS, but I am also hopeful that I could possibly do some actual work on ebooks with it.
I'm hoping something like having a PDF on one side of the screen while checking/editing/proofreading a text only document on the other side of the screen would be possible.
I'm also hoping that I could edit/fix scanned images of old, worn, dust jackets. Preferably with the availability of layers and a clone stamp, brush, and text tools. Does the Apple Pencil have fine control? On my computer, I often have set my brushes very small in Photoshop to clean up between title letters, for example.
Is this a pipe dream, or is some of this actually possible?
I often find that after I put an image edited on the computer on my tablet, I often see THINGS I MISSED FIXING thanks to the high 300ppi resolution of my tablet screen! So editing directly on a tablet might save me some grief....
Being able to do some basic OCR, i.e. converting image text to an actual plain text file would also be helpful.
Would love any insights from anyone who had used their iPad for their hobby of digitizing books!
