Frequently Asked Questions
Does this clean up photos of documents automatically?
Yes — photos are processed with a scan-style cleanup so the result looks like a proper document scan rather than a raw photo.
Can I combine multiple photos into one multi-page scanned PDF?
Yes — upload several photos and each becomes a page in the same PDF, in the order you selected them.
What image formats can I upload for scanning?
Any common photo format works — JPG, PNG, WebP, etc.
Is there a limit on how many pages I can scan at once?
You can upload up to 30 photos in a single conversion.
Does this remove shadows or perspective distortion from phone photos?
It applies a scan-style cleanup pass, but it isn’t a full perspective-correction or shadow-removal engine — for best results, photograph documents flat and well-lit.
