There are also a few other ways to take photos and save multi-pages into one PDF or create a PDF from receipts embedded in emails shown in the Receipts dropdown below.
ADD PHOTO/PDF OF THE RECEIPTS TO THE FOLDER.UI Expand title Receipts - If you have a photo on your phone but you are unable to use the Google Drive app to upload it, you can email the photo to yourself and then upload the photo attached to the email straight to Google Drive on your computer (see instructions below for dragging and dropping a file) or if the photo is embedded in the email you can turn the email with the receipt information/photo into a PDF.
- If you have a receipt or photo that is embedded in the body of an email (such as a flight/rental car/hotel) you can select FILE and PRINT on the email and instead of printing to a printer, use the drop-down printer option to select MICROSOFT PRINT TO PDF. You will then have the email contents saved as a PDF that you can easily upload into the Google Drive folder.
- You can also use a Microsoft app called Microsoft Lens to take photos of individual receipts or use it to create one PDF by taking pictures of multiple printed individual receipt pages. Once you take the photo(s) and save them together as one PDF to your phone, you can follow the instructions below to add the pictures or PDFs to the Google Drive folder.
