If you're planning on using the phone's camera to capture the image (document page) you can use the Windows.Media.Capture API as explained here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/dn642092.aspx About converting the image to text you can try the Microsoft OCR library which is explained here: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/55275a/windows-phone-8-1-optical-character-recognition-ocr/ There's also a Win8 C# project in this article that uses Lead Tools to perform OCR: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/470094/Image-Enabled-Windows-Store-Applications-with-LEAD
