For some reason on my regular cameras phone documents appear as a regular rectangular piece of paper. However, when I go into adobe scan, when I put my camera on the same document the document is a square and not a rectangle. Because of this, it does not produce good pictures. It was working fine when I first got the app and now the pictures I take look slightly morphed. Can anyone help me with this issue?

Thank you for using Adobe Scan and for reaching out to us. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you, and we would troubleshoot the issue further with you. To do so, could you please help us answer some questions?
 
  1. What Android device do you have? 
  2. What is the Android version on your device? (System Setting > About phone > Software information > Android version)
  3. What is the version number of Adobe Scan installed on your device? (From Adobe Scan, tap on three horizontal line icon on top left, then choose About Adobe Scan.)
  4. Is your device camera or any other camera app working properly? (ie. Showing camera preview and you can take a photo.)
  5. When you say "square," is the aspect ratio messed up, or does it cut off part of the document?
  6. Once the picture is taken and you navigate to Review screen via photo thumbnail, is the document displayed in proper size/aspect ratio?

@UTKARSH2895981211hh,

 

Thank you for sharing the details.

 

Can you click the crop option to check if the Auto-Crop is selected? If yes, disable it and check if the aspect ratio switches back to normal. 

 

Also, you might want to check the page size selected on the edit screen and see if that helps.

 

Hope the above steps help.
