PDF Scanner AI has Sharpen Text — it makes photographed printed documents look typed, while keeping your real page: the background, colors, layout, and your signature.

It's also a full document scanner: scan to searchable PDF, run OCR, capture IDs and books, and compress, merge, or split PDFs right on your phone.


✨ WHAT IS SHARPEN TEXT?
Point your camera at a printed letter, contract, receipt, or form. Sharpen Text erases the blurry printed ink and re-types it razor-sharp — in the original ink color — so the page still looks like your real document, but reads like it was typed. Your signature and handwriting are left untouched.
(Works best on clean printed documents.)


🎛️ THREE WAYS TO RENDER YOUR PDF
• Keep Background — your original photo with an invisible, searchable text layer
• Remove Background — a clean white page with crisp typed text
• Sharpen Text — a Layout PDF mode: keep the real page, make the printed text typed-sharp


📄 A FULL DOCUMENT SCANNER
• Automatic edge detection, auto-crop, and A4 straightening
• ID card scanner — front and back on a single page
• Book scanner
• QR code & barcode scanner


📥 OPEN ANY PDF YOU ALREADY HAVE
Import a PDF from your phone or cloud, or open one straight from Gmail, Drive or your browser — then use every tool on it. Save any document to Downloads in one tap.


📝 PDF TO WORD, LAYOUT INTACT
Convert a scan into an editable Word file (.docx) — real Word tables, heading sizes, bold and alignment carried over.


✏️ EDIT PDF TEXT WITHOUT RESCANNING
Open a Layout PDF, tap Edit text, reword a line — rebuilt in place, no rescan.


🔤 SMART SCAN — OCR IN 24 LANGUAGES
Turn a photo into text with AI-powered OCR in 24 languages — image to text, photo to text. Great for contracts, notes, and receipts.
(Smart Scan / OCR requires an internet connection.)


🔍 SEARCHABLE PDFs
Every Smart Scan becomes a searchable PDF — select, copy, and find any word in any PDF viewer.


🔒 PRIVATE, ON-DEVICE PDF TOOLS
Compress PDF files, merge PDFs into one, or split a PDF into pages — right on your phone, offline. No upload, no account. Your files never leave your device.


📤 EXPORT ANYWHERE
Save and share as PDF, Word (DOCX), TXT, or image. Add your signature to any document.


👍 PERFECT FOR
Contracts and agreements, receipts and expenses, tax and ID documents, homework and notes, and anything you need to scan, sign, and send fast.
