Frequently asked questions
About Scan to PDF
Paperwork rarely arrives in a format that's convenient to store or share. A handwritten authorization, several expense receipts, or pages from a notebook might all need to become a digital document. Scan to PDF provides a camera-based and image-based scanning workspace that turns these individual captures into an organized, downloadable PDF without requiring a dedicated scanner.
Unlike a basic photo-to-PDF converter, the workspace provides individual editing controls for every imported image. Trim away surrounding desks, backgrounds, or unnecessary borders with the adjustable crop editor. Apply a fixed aspect ratio when consistent page proportions matter, or rotate photographs that were captured sideways. Four appearance modes offer different treatments: Original retains the photograph's colors, Grayscale removes color, Black & White produces a high-contrast monochrome result, and Enhance adjusts image contrast to improve visibility.
Document layout is equally flexible. Traditional one-image-per-page output works well for contracts, forms, and full-page scans. Auto arrange is useful for fitting smaller images together vertically, while Grid provides controlled multi-image layouts for receipts, contact sheets, and collections of reference photographs. Grid arrangements can be previewed before export, with the choice of 2, 3, 4, 6, or 8 images per PDF page. A4, Letter, and automatic page sizing are available alongside orientation, margin, and image-quality settings.
The resulting PDF preserves the visual appearance of the processed photographs, but it does not recognize printed text or create editable document content. For the clearest output, capture images in good lighting and check the crop and appearance settings before conversion.
All image editing and PDF generation take place locally in your browser. Photographs are not uploaded to a processing server, and the original image files remain unchanged. The finished document can be downloaded directly to your device.
