If you want to be able to easily view the recipes on a mobile device, then may .jpg, because these will display in the note without having to open up the PDF viewer. If you are looking for OCR, then the .jpg will probably also do better.If you want the two images in a single file, you want to be able to add comments and the like, and OCR isn't as important (apparently, Evernote does better with handwriting for .jpg), then .pdf.

Jasonrn2000 1 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Thank you. I guess Ill have to play with it. I don't think OCR will be that important as I can tag the recipe. I'm more interested in displaying both sides of the card on one page (note). Link to comment
