* Long scrolling screen recordings become a nice, coherent and readable document. * Parses screen recordings personalized for the device it was taken from * Avoids cutting off data * Includes a variety of tools to adjust the parsing so you can get it exactly the way you want. * Turns massive screenshots taken from 3rd party apps, does the work that they skipped and turns it into a useful format, such as a PDF, also includes OCR extraction. Ironically, using an automatic scroll + screenshot app could lead to you finding yourself in a different problem, giant unreadable images, you see a tiny little bar that stretches from the top of your screen to the bottom, you can zoom in, a lot, and scroll, again, or let FrameBuffer locally process and deliver multi-page pdf's or multiple images. Nevertheless, if you do want a giant image for whatever reason, set the pixel height to cover the entire image
