How to turn paper documents into a clean PDF on iPhone
A scan is easier to use when the page is flat, the edges are visible, and the final file has a clear name.
A clear sequence
- Place the page on a contrasting, even surface.
- Capture the full page without cutting off the corners.
- Review the crop and rotate pages before saving.
- Use a descriptive file name with the document date.
- Open the finished PDF once to confirm every page is readable.
A two-second review prevents a blurry or incomplete scan from becoming the copy everyone relies on.
