Photos to PDF
Turn photos of paper into a PDF
A portal asks for a PDF and you only have a phone and the paper. Photograph each page, check its corners, and save one PDF.
Open workspaceWhen this helps
Use this for letters, forms, receipts and certificates that have to be sent as a PDF. Each photo becomes a page, in the order you add them.
For example
A task you can finish here
Photograph the three pages of a signed form, check that each page’s four corners sit on the paper, put the pages in order and save them as one A4 PDF.
The workflow
Three clear steps
- 01
Take or choose photos
Open JPG or PNG photos. Each one is shown upright and becomes a page.
- 02
Check the corners
Scan suggests where the page is. Move any corner that is off; detection can be wrong.
- 03
Save a PDF
Choose the paper size and detail, make the PDF, check it and download it. Your photos stay unchanged.
Your photos and the public site

Questions
Is the result as good as a flatbed scanner?
No. A photo has less detail than a scanner, and cleaning can lose faint marks. Original keeps the page as photographed.
Does it read or check the document?
No. Scan makes a picture of the page. It does not read text, check identity documents or say a document is valid.
