The recently upgraded color/gray cleanup technique has been further tuned for handling photos of documents that are not perfectly centered in the field of view (that would degrade cleaning capabilities). This also improves black & white PDF exports with image regions. [thank you Sophie L. from Cœur à Corps for the feedback]
5.7
Mar 3, 2023
NEW FEATURES
- New languages: added support for 4 new on-device OCR languages with high accuracy: Japanese, Korean, Ukrainian, and Russian. (iOS 16 required)
- Document cleanup upgrade: improved color and gray cleanup, resulting in clearer and more accurate outputs.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug where changing the cleanup mode when exporting could be ignored.
- Fixed a crash that could occur when changing the image compression level before exporting a document.

## More information about Prizmo 5.6 ##
Prizmo 5.6 is an important update that brings major improvements to text processing (OCR), interactions to manipulate documents and pages, as well as optimization for iOS 16 & important bug fixes.
Prizmo is the ultimate pro scanning app for iPhone & iPad with a simple workflow, powerful editing tools including OCR and pencil annotation, and fully controllable PDF generation & cloud export.
TEXT PROCESSING / OCR
- Major update of the Cloud OCR engine that now supports 139 languages as well as handwriting in 9 languages, and which further improves its already state-of-the-art accuracy. Also, handwriting vs. print handling is now fully automatic, with no user pre-selection needed.
- Major overhaul of text layout understanding for both on-device and Cloud OCR engines. Document layout parsing (OCR post-processing) has been upgraded for better text block & column generation. Recognized text blocks now better represent the original document intent for all supported OCRs.
- Cloud OCR is now faster by using the nearest server. Server location can be manually changed "Settings > OCR > Cloud OCR > Server Location".
- Cloud OCR still provides excellent privacy on top of its industry-leading performance for both print & handwritten documents, with user data being immediately deleted after processing & not used for any other purpose.
STRUCTURE INTERACTIONS & CONTEXUAL MENUS
For both the documents browser and pages editor:
- Use of contextual menus for the available actions for documents and pages.
- Touch and hold an item to enter in multiple selection has been replaced by a dedicated button. It now also supports the iOS interaction that allows to select multiple items by dragging two fingers over the items you want to select.
- On iPadOS, you can select multiple items using the keyboard and trackpad.
- Like on the iPad before, drag & drop to other apps is now available on the iPhone (requires iOS 15 or later).
PAGE LIST EDITING
- By using touch and hold, you can now reorder pages directly without going in edit mode first.
- You can now duplicate the selected pages.
- By using the contextual menu, you can insert new pages after a selected page.
OTHER ENHANCEMENTS + iOS 16
- Handling of close-up shot that could appear blurred on latest iPhone Pro models (13 Pro / 14 Pro) by automatically switching to the most appropriate lens.
- Use of contextual menus with modern iOS style all over the app.
- In the page editor, when sharing a page, all formats (JPEG, PDF, etc.) are now available.
- Use of iOS modern bottom sheet style (iOS 16 only).
- Text-to-speech: added support for new "Premium" quality voices of iOS 16.
