How do I turn a photo of a document into a scan?
Drop the photo in, check the four corners of the page, and the tool flattens the perspective into a straight rectangle, evens out the lighting and sharpens the text, then exports PNG, JPG or PDF.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. Photo to Scan runs entirely in your browser. Edge detection, flattening and cleanup all happen on your device, so it is safe for IDs, visas, receipts and contracts.
How does it remove fingers from the scan?
After flattening, it looks for skin-coloured areas touching the edge of the page and fills them with the surrounding paper colour. Anything it misses, you can paint over and it is filled the same way.
Can I save the scan as a PDF?
Yes. Download as PNG, JPG or a single-page PDF, with no watermark and no sign-up. A4 and Letter shapes export at true page size.
Does increasing resolution add detail?
The 1.5x and 2x options use bicubic upscaling plus sharpening, which makes small text print and zoom more cleanly. It cannot invent detail the camera never captured, so start from the sharpest photo you can.
