The CamScanner app, which is available for both Android and IOS mobile devices, allows you to use your phone to scan items directly to PDF. Some of the features I have found especially helpful include:
batch scanning
editing of the scanned image, including cropping and rotation
creation of user-defined tags for documents
easy uploading to Dropbox or sharing via email, social networks, etc.
There is a free version of the app, which limits the number of documents you can create and adds a watermark with the app name to them. Upgrade to the full version is handled from within the app. Of particular interest to ProfHacker readers: A free upgrade to the full version of the app is available to anyone who registers it with a .edu email address.
