Tips for converting photos to PDFs

• Use transparent backgrounds or consistent surfaces for best page boundary detection.
• Enable Auto scan cleanup to automatically detect page borders and correct perspective.
• Choose Balanced cleanup for most scanned documents, or High contrast black and white for text-heavy pages.
• For folders of images, they will be processed in natural filename order.
• If page detection is uncertain, try adjusting lighting or using the manual corner adjustment.
• Combine with OCR to make photographed documents fully searchable and editable.

• Separate merged invoice PDFs by repeating title text such as "Invoice was issued".
• Split statement packets where each account section starts with the same heading.
• Break combined form exports into individual files when each record has a shared label.
• Review highlighted text matches before downloading the generated split files.

Tips for splitting by text

• Use an exact phrase when every new document starts with the same title.
• Use ? when one word changes between documents, such as "Invoice ? issued".
• Apply Split by text after manual or fixed-page split points when the text pattern should replace the previous setup.
• Matched strings are outlined in blue on the preview so you can confirm where each split starts.

What changed

• Smooth each line is enabled by default for OCR Text-Only Mode.
• Smooth whole page uses one consistent font size and family across the page.
• Do not smooth keeps the per-word OCR font detection signals when you want maximum variation.

• Place scanned initials, signatures, or approval stamps on PDF forms.
• Add transparent seals to certificates, legal documents, and official letters.
• Batch add the same logo watermark or reviewed stamp to recurring PDF exports.

Tips for adding images to PDFs

• Use transparent PNG files when the logo, seal, or signature should sit cleanly over existing page content.
• Choose Fit whole image when the full logo must remain visible inside the selected area.
• Use Fill stamp box for photo-style images where cropping the edges is acceptable.
• Set up one PDF first, then use Batch Apply when the same stamp belongs on many files.

• Pull signature pages from contracts and save them as a clean attachment.
• Save one page from a PDF application, form packet, or long report.
• Extract invoice and receipt pages from monthly scan batches.
• Batch extract the same page positions from recurring statements or exports.

Tips for extracting pages

• Click pages in the visual preview so the selected output is clear before download.
• Use one combined PDF when the selected pages belong together, such as contract signature pages.
• Use separate page files when each extracted page needs to become its own attachment.
• For recurring reports or statements, configure one file and Batch Apply the same selection to the rest.

• Split recurring scanned batches into fixed-size groups with Split every N pages.
• Create one split recipe, then Batch Apply it across multiple PDFs.
• Preview the output document ranges before downloading the split files.
• Review or edit the processing config before starting a batch split run.

Tips for batch splitting

• Use Split every N pages for uniform packets such as invoices, labels, or scan batches.
• Use visual split points when each source PDF has custom document boundaries.
• For Batch Apply, configure the first PDF, then add the other PDFs in the batch dialog.
• The batch result downloads as one ZIP containing one split-results ZIP per input PDF.

• Turn selectable PDFs into image-only documents before external sharing.
• Flatten forms, annotations, stamps, signatures, and drawings into fixed page images.
• Create scanned-style PDFs without printing and scanning paper copies.
• Set up one file, then press Batch apply to include it and add more recurring forms, evidence packs, invoices, or finalized reports.

Tips for better flattened PDFs

• Use balanced quality for everyday sharing and high quality when the PDF needs to print cleanly.
• Run Hide or Add Text first when the final visual page should include redactions, labels, or stamps.
• Upload the first file, adjust the flattening quality, then press Batch apply and add the other documents for the batch.
• Flatten after OCR only when you intentionally want to remove selectable text from the final copy.

• Fix sideways scanned pages before sending them to clients or colleagues.
• Correct upside-down invoices, forms, and handouts for easier reading.
• Normalize mixed portrait and landscape pages in exported reports.
• Apply the same rotation recipe to batches of recurring scans and exports.

Tips for better rotation fixes

• Use Apply to all pages when the whole file needs the same 90-degree turn.
• If only some pages are sideways, rotate those pages individually in the viewer.
• Use batch mode to apply the same rotation setup across multiple PDF files in one run.
• Fix page orientation before OCR so searchable text matches the reading direction.

• Make scanned contracts searchable so teams can find key clauses quickly.
• Copy text from invoices, receipts, and forms instead of retyping them manually.
• Build searchable archives from scanned reports, books, and paper records.
• Apply the same OCR setup to batches of recurring scans, invoices, and forms.

Tips for better OCR results

• Choose the document language that best matches the scan for better recognition quality.
• Crop to the text region when borders, stamps, or photos interfere with recognition.
• Use batch apply when you need the same OCR settings across multiple PDF files.
• If a scan is crooked, keep Auto align content enabled so OCR straightens pages before recognition.
