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.
Downloads as a windows executable, if you are using MacOS or Linux, download the source code as a zip and run
python main.py
- yes it does run that slow, the program hasn't crashed, tkinter just shows as not responding. (If anyone wants to fix this, version 2.0 needs to include multi-threading.
- no i don't know why it isn't running, if you have any bugs or crashes send them to me.
- Python 3.7.x or newer, and the following packages
- numpy
- scipy
- Pillow (PIL)
the easiest way to install these is to run the following:
-pip install numpy scipy Pillow
Download the projects as a .zip, then run main.py. For debugging purposes, run backend.py.
Go ahead, all help is appreciated.
