Our tool is created with simplicity and efficiency in mind. You need to upload the PDF file, adjust the settings accordingly, preview, and finally download. The interface makes it easy to all, providing converting PDFs to scanned images as a trouble-free experience.
Our tool is convenient for flexible file uploads. You can upload or drag and drop PDFs straight from your device, or you can import from cloud storage such as Google Drive and Dropbox. All uploads are secure, and files are locally processed for privacy.
You can opt to scan your PDF as a color or a black-and-white scanned document. Opt for color when your original material is colorful or in situations where color preservation is required for clarity. Opt for black & white to save file size, enhance scanning speed, or if the document is mainly text, which makes it suitable for printing and storing.
Set the noise level to achieve your best-scanned PDF quality. Low noise for high-quality documents, medium noise for average documents with slight distortions, and high noise for extremely deteriorated documents. These settings enable you to adjust the scan according to the condition of the original document.
You can adjust the page rotation to different levels, such as low, medium, and high. Low rotation for slightly misaligned pages, medium for visible misalignment, and high for heavily misaligned pages. These options allow you to control the degree of rotation applied to pages.
You can see a live preview of your scanned PDF prior to final processing. You can make real-time changes like noise level, color options, or rotation. The preview ensures the quality and appearance before you save, saving time and preventing reprocessing.
