PDF OCR: Scanner & Editor
Sign, Annotate, Convert, Merge
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad
New in 3.0: write, highlight and sign right in the PDF viewer, scan documents with automatic text recognition, and split PDFs any way you need.
PDF OCR turns your iPhone and iPad into a complete PDF workspace: scan paper into searchable PDFs, read and mark up any PDF, and fix files with a full set of tools. Everything runs on your device.
SCAN TO PDF
• Point the camera at a page; edges are found and the page is straightened for you
• Scan many pages in one go, then reorder, rotate or remove them
• Text is recognized automatically, so scans are searchable and selectable
• Reads QR codes and puts both sides of an ID card on one page
READ AND MARK UP
• Pen, highlighter, text highlight, underline and strikethrough
• Notes, shapes, arrows, stamps and your saved signature
• Select anything you added to move or resize it
• Reorder, rotate, insert and delete pages
• Search, contents and bookmarks, night mode and read aloud
ALL YOUR PDF TOOLS
• Recognize text (OCR) in scanned PDFs
• Make files smaller
• Merge PDFs and images, split by pages, ranges or every N pages
• Convert PDF to images, text and RTF, and web pages to PDF
• Add or remove passwords and permissions
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your documents never leave your device. Scanning, text recognition and summaries run on the device, with no account.
