About Scan to PDF

Photograph a document and get a clean PDF: the page edges are detected, the perspective is straightened, the lighting is evened out and the text is sharpened. Add pages one after another and download a single PDF.

  • Lay the page flat on a contrasting surface in good light.
  • Black and white mode makes the smallest files for text documents.
  • Run OCR PDF afterwards to make the scan searchable.

How to use it

  1. 1Take a photo with the camera or drop photos of pages.
  2. 2Check the detected edges and the enhancement; reorder pages if needed.
  3. 3Download the PDF.
