ShrinkNote

ShrinkNote is a simple program used to condense and clarify handwritten notes. The program optimizes pages of notes for computer displays by grabbing a set of a few representative colors, and then building the remaining image with that palette.

Shrinknote accepts most* image file types, but does not support reading from pdf. If your copy machine saves files as a pdf, i suggest using a conversion service like Cloudconvert to convert them into single image files.
