How do you combine handwriting with digital usability?

Experimenting using microsoft lens to scan to photo (so I have an original copy) then using readwise app to convert to text. Then it can be sent straight into obsidian

Very helpful thanks Tom!, I used the Google Drive option, as expected I had to make a few corrections but so much easier than retyping. Your videos are concise and easy to follow, keep up the good work!

This is a very cool idea! I already created mine pasting it to a study ploy folder cover. Thanks, Tom!

This is exactly what I was looking for, love the ingenuity! Thank you!

Do you know if the Rocketbook Beacons for whiteboard would work when used with a normal handwritten sheet of paper?

Very clever, extremely helpful!! Thank you - this will make teacher life MUCH easier!!!

Very clever, Tom! I love figuring out stuff like this and enjoy seeing others doing the same. My scanner box was an inexpensive one that I found on the USA Amazon but they shipped it to me in Australia. It's cardboard and has some 'fancy' sticky foam things so you can align your phone up perfectly in future once you've found what works. The only issue (which the one you showed won't have that problem) is that it can be too dark inside the box. I sorted that out with a small torch/flashlight. But the addition of the Rocketbook cutout and app is pure gold. ❤ The only Rocketbooks I could find that ship to Australia are American ones that are in their paper format. Ideally I'd need A4 and A5 sizes for scanning my own papers.

Thanks for your kind feedback, Gaelyne! Happy if it was useful to you 🙌

Could you create a custom template in reMarkable, that incorporates the Rocketbook QR (maybe as a graphic clip)? Then you wouldn't need the cut out overlay...

Great video! Are there any security concerns about how the Rocketbook does the conversion?

Hi! downloaded the rocketbook paper and tried the hack you introduced but didn't work. It doesn't convert it to text. Just scan it as it is. Do you have to have the actual page from the rocketbook in order to work? thank you!

Very clever outside the box thinking! Thank you!!

Did you try Google Lens ? Would you then even require Rockeybook apart from auto organizing/tag feature, which can be overcome by no-code tools nowadays, would love to know what you think about this

Very helpful! Thank you for doing this!

This is absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much for this idea

does scribble convert any words or letters? or it must be in english or common language ? because i write in short and my mother tongue is rare and want to know if it will work for my class notes

Hi @TomSolid, I also like my rocket book. One thing I wish I could do, is keep my diagrams while converting my handwriting into typed text. People can't read my handwriting, and the OCR only captures the text in an unformatted way. I really need both, any way to do that?

@paperlessmovement

Good question. To my understanding it will only convert your text. If you forward it to tools like Evernote, you can keep both though while still being searchable. 👍

Hi Tom, amazing hack thanks!. Do you know if it could work for notes done on lined or square paper? cheers!

Can you make a video that shows how to convert Rocketbook notes to the Notes app on iPhone? I’m sure there’s a solution using the Shortcuts app but can’t figure it out!

Thanks for the easy solution to convert handwriting text to digital usability. This works fine. I will use this if I forgot my iPad :-)

Thank you. Can you share the PDFs with the rocketbook pages, to make the frames? It wood be nice 😊

Tom, I like that. I tried placing my cutout page inside a plastic sleeve. Taking the picture was a little harder because of unwanted reflections, but it still worked. However, the OCR transcription to printed text does NOT work so well as when the frame is NOT in the plastic sleeve.

Would laminating the Rocketbook pages cause issues with scanning? Such thin edges will easily rip.

Good point! And I actually built a frame out of cardboard but didn’t add it to the video. Probably using some wooden frame and put the Rocketbook frame on top would work best.

What about supernote? Is it any better?

Thanks for the great tips and hacks, Tom! In the end, it looks the fastest and most productive way is taking note in digital form directly... 😊

Great English! I love your videos!

If you were doing a whole notebook (for example - a novel written by hand in a book) then 1/ Is there a way of doing page after page of this (maybe hundreds) and having them in the right order? 2/ If you have already scanned in the pages, then is there anyway of using your hack without re-scanning them all in one at a time? I too looked for a good way to do this for my novel a good while back (ie take an already written notebook and turn it into type), and ended up giving up, because none of the OCR systems worked very well. Will be very interested to see if this does the trick. All the ones I tried had so many errors, it just wasn’t worth it.

@@paperlessmovement To improve your setup a bit the scanning box could have a glass sheet close to the paper with spacers underneath. The rocketbook app scans pages sequentially pretty fast (as you actually demonstrated in the video so I guess Stuart Brown didn't watch it all) so you could do a book of handwritten notes ..."quicker" Also, no need for a rocketbook. Any notebook in the oven will blank with those pens!

wow this is so helpful!! im also disappointed that in 2022 our handwriting to typed text conversion is still really lacking when it comes to scanning our paper written notes. i feel like this would be easily curbed by apple if, like setting up siri and programming our voice, we were made to write out and scan some specific sentences so the programs can better understand our handwriting. Any way, in the meantime, this should be really helpful so thank you!

Not sure if you know, but Rocket Book has free printable pages. So you could print those out and write on them or try the same cut-out technique for almost free.

I write in cursive and it doesn't convert it right

Am I missing something ? Typing is quicker than handwriting..... Why would you bother handwriting, and then correcting the converted text ?

My handwriting is bad and Remarkable ocr is completely worthless applied to it.

This is still to fussy. Streamlined. Steps removed. Write it on paper or on top of a pdf. Tap to convert text. Grammarly check. Save. Done. Searchable. Both handwritten note text and pdf text. Someone has to figure this out! I don't have time for all of these steps. Who can remember all of them anyway. Doesn't allow me to focus on my business. Need a more streamlined process. Opportunity for someone (a developer) to take massive marketshare with a solution like this. I would buy!

Now you can use the iPhone camera on iOS 16 for instant text conversion, even handwriting. Also works if you take a picture. Pretty straightforward forward if you ask us 😃👍

Rocketbook smears and is still a time-consuming upload process.

It's all too clunky to me. I'm surprised there's not a better AI driven service by now, that for example can keep your notes formatting PERFECTLY when converting to text. A company has a good opportunity here to be the first to really make it all seamless.
