Scan documents to PDF with your phone

Turn photos of CNIC copies, certificates, fee slips, forms, notes and receipts into a neat PDF, like a scanner app but with nothing to install. Drag the four corners to the edges of the paper and the page is straightened. Choose clean colour, black & white or grey to remove shadows, add as many pages as you need, then download one PDF. Photos are processed on your phone and never uploaded.

How to scan a document

  1. Press Take photo (or choose photos you already took).
  2. Drag the four round handles to the corners of the paper, pick a look, and press Add page.
  3. Repeat for every page, then press Download PDF.

Questions

Which look should I choose?

Black & white is best for text documents: shadows disappear and the file is small. Clean colour suits certificates, CNIC copies and anything with stamps or photos.

The PDF is too big for the website. What can I do?

Choose "Small (for forms)" before downloading, or run the PDF through Compress PDF.

Can I scan both sides of my CNIC on one page?

Scan each side here, then put them together with Images to PDF, or ask us for a CNIC copy tool through the suggestions page.
