[texh88]

hey
i have a question regarding printing a text pic which were taken from kinda shitty camera and is now with dark background...
i tried printing it but it came out quite black.. there are multiple pictures so cant edit every pic and print..
is there any way in MS office, PDFs, etc.. that can print the text only without the black background??

You could also run it thru the office picture manager and brighten it and increase the contrast. Then you get the one below. But try Dereks's suggestion too. If I remember right that is a little tutorial I made, LOL.

You have to do every picture individually, but in the picture manager you can do them one after the other.

In addition, there is a web service that can do it for you automatically, but one by one.

This is of course quite far fetched , as you would need a Windows Phone for this, but from my own experience I can tell you that Office Lens app for Windows Phone would be perfect for you.

Office Lens: A OneNote scanner for your pocket | Office Blogs

A quote from above mentioned site:

Office Lens trims, enhances and makes pictures readable. Weird angles are straightened, shadows are cleaned up and the images are automatically synced to OneNote, so you can get to them on all your devices.

When your picture includes printed text, such as a poster or business card, OneNote on a PC can recognize the text with optical character recognition (OCR) so you can search for words in the image — and you can edit the text, or copy and paste it into apps like email and documents.
