Upload document photos or click 'Scan with Camera' to capture pages directly.

2

Adjust the 4 corner handles to align with the physical edges of your document.

3

Click 'Apply & Enhance' to straighten perspective and apply enhancement filters.

What This Tool Does

Uses 2D projective homography and bilinear inverse transformation to flatten tilted document photos into rectangular scans. Applies image processing algorithms for paper whitening and text contrast enhancement without transmitting any file data to external servers.

Common Use Cases

Digitizing printed paper contracts, invoices, and expense receipts.
Scanning student notes, book pages, and whiteboard diagrams.
Creating crisp multi-page PDF documents on mobile without installing an app.
Submitting official paperwork and IDs requiring watermark-free scans.
Privacy & Local-First Processing

All perspective transformation, filtering, and PDF compilation execute 100% locally within your browser using HTML5 Canvas and WebAssembly. Camera streams and photos never leave your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Phoenix Tools add a watermark to scanned PDFs?

No. All PDF and image exports are completely clean with zero watermarks, branding, or advertisements.

Can I scan multiple pages into one PDF?

Yes. You can add as many pages as you need, reorder or delete pages, and click 'Export (PDF)' to bundle them into a single document.

How does the perspective correction work?

You position 4 draggable corner handles over the corners of your paper. The browser solves an 8-variable projective matrix to deskew and flatten the document.
