Zirak Mobile has released a new application for photographing and sending out documents directly from the iPhone. Scanner&Fax; allows users to take pictures of documents with the iPhone camera, enhance them and organize them into multi-page PDF files. The resulting PDF documents can be transferred to a computer over Wi-Fi, saved to Google Docs, iDisk or WebDAV, or sent via e-mail or fax. Faxes are sent via the InterFax online fax service and users can include a cover page with their document or send a cover-only fax. The app can automatically enhance photographed documents or the user can manually adjust settings such as brightness, contrast and color intensity and correct perspective deformations. Scanner&Fax requires an iPhone 3GS with OS 3.1 or later and is available on the App Store for $6. Faxing capabilities require the user to set up an account with the InterFax service.
