About this tool
This tool does one job and does it entirely on your device. Combine photos into an enhanced scan-style PDF — camera capture on mobile. Processing runs locally in your browser's memory — the document is never transmitted, and closing the tab clears it completely. The workflow is deliberately short: load the file, choose the options on the page, run the operation, and save the result. Every choice is applied before the file is written, so re-running with different settings takes seconds. Practical limits apply (see the on-page limits); it pairs well with the related tools linked beside this page when one step is not the whole job. Key facts — Processing: runs entirely in your browser, client-side; Access: free with no account required; File limits: see the on-page limits; Privacy: the file never leaves the device.

FAQ
Will my file be uploaded?
No. Processing runs entirely in your browser — your file is never uploaded, and closing the page clears it immediately.
Are there any limits?
Images are rasterized during enhancement; supports common image formats (JPG/PNG/WEBP, etc.).
What affects the clarity and final quality of the scanned PDF?
Quality depends on the lighting and sharpness of your input photos. You can use perspective correction to straighten skewed pages and apply grayscale/contrast enhancements to eliminate shadows; checking the optional OCR text layer generates a searchable PDF locally via WASM.
Can I process multiple files in bulk?
A single tool page handles one task at a time; for bulk work use the Batch Processing workflow and add this tool as a step to run a whole set at once.
Is the processed file still editable?
The output is a newly generated PDF with rasterized pages; your original photos stay untouched. If you enabled the OCR text layer, text can be searched and selected, though page imagery is permanently saved as a flat scan.
