Turn your phone into a scanner: photograph receipts, contracts or homework, and images are auto-enhanced to look like a scan with a white background and crisp text, then combined into one PDF.
How to use it
- Tap “Use camera” or choose photos from your gallery.
- Pick an enhancement: original, document or black & white, and reorder pages.
- Tap “Create PDF” and download.
Features
- Automatic contrast and lighting enhancement.
- Sharp black & white mode for text.
- Phone orientation fixed, manual rotation.
- A4 or US Letter.
Steps for scanner-quality results
- Light: daylight near a window beats a ceiling light that casts your phone's shadow on the page.
- Background: lay the page on a flat, dark surface so its edges stand out.
- Angle: shoot straight from above with the phone parallel to the page.
- Enhancement: “Black & white” for text and contracts, “Document” when there are coloured stamps or signatures, “Original” for photos.
After scanning
- Make the text searchable and copyable with OCR.
- If the file is over an upload limit, use Compress PDF.
- To add scanned pages to an existing file, use Merge PDF.
Privacy and security
“Scan to PDF” runs entirely in your browser using trusted open-source libraries. Your files are never uploaded to a server and no copy is kept, so your documents stay private. It is free and needs no sign-up.
Tip: Shoot on a dark surface in good light without shadows for the best result.
