If you have a basic handle on a GUI Bitmap editor such as Photoshop or GIMP, and you have a hi-resolution phone, you can just take a photo of the sheet as parallel as you can manage and then create a document that is the same dimensions and then use the warp tool to fit the likely skewed photograph to the exact digital document.

There's lots of apps that do it for you too. Scannable is one.
ha! As soon as I wrote that I thought "there's an app in that" and started mentally mapping out how it could work. I figured it'd need to be simple as possible, and even considered using the user's location to preƫmpt the paper format choice :)

I'm not an app developer. Probably for the best.
