Meet Office Lens, a free documentation app available in Windows Phone Store, that has ability give various output just from a captured image.
So basically, this utility app makes your work easy. Referring to above shown screenshot, as you can see I snapped a picture using the camera, even in the dark shade. Then I opened it into Office Lens, and tap the last icon at top right part of screen, in order to select the mode of document. Here you have three options; photo, whiteboard, document. Just tap on the whiteboard mode, and in the few seconds, your image will take the shape of scanned document.
