Use Scan to PDF when you need to clean up document photos and combine them into a PDF. This guide follows a concrete workflow: combine phone photos of printed notes. Keep your source file so you can compare the result and repeat the conversion with different settings.
Work through the example
- Choose document photos in their intended page order.
- Set clockwise rotation and choose grayscale or black-and-white cleanup.
- Compare the before and after images, then save the combined PDF.
Understand the output
Upload photos, rotate them and apply grayscale or black-and-white cleanup. The result is image-based; use OCR PDF for searchable text.
Use the preview or open the downloaded output in the application where it will be used. A successful export means that a file was created; your final review confirms that it meets the requirements of your actual task.
Save and share carefully
The tool link is shareable; your uploaded document is not included in that link. Download the finished file before closing the tab. Reset clears the workspace. You can save the tool to Favorites to return to the same workflow later.
