Frequently asked questions
Which camera is used?
The back camera on phones and tablets, or your webcam on a computer. Video never leaves your device.
Can I make the scan clearer?
Turn on Document mode: captures are converted to high-contrast grayscale, which keeps text readable and the file small.
Is the text searchable?
Not right away: captures are images. Run the PDF through OCR PDF to add searchable text.
Is there a file size limit for free users?
Free accounts and guests can process files up to 10 MB. Pro and Team raise the limit to 100 MB per file.
Do I need to create an account or install software?
There's nothing to install: the tool runs in your web browser. You can drop a file and process it right away without an account. To download the result, sign in or create a free account (3 free downloads a month), or go Pro for unlimited downloads.
Is it free?
Yes. With a free account you can download up to 3 files a month from any tool, or upgrade to Pro for unlimited use.
