Scan to PDF online

What Scan to PDF does

Scan to PDF detects supported image content and writes one page per image using the source pixel dimensions.

Scan to PDF runs as a queued server job after the source upload completes. The generated artifact receives a separate download link, so the original device file remains unchanged.

How to use this tool

Prepare the source
Crop desk edges, correct orientation, and arrange images in reading order before upload. This preparation matters specifically before using Scan to PDF.
Upload and inspect
Select one or more JPEG or PNG document images, wait for the Scan to PDF upload to finish, and confirm that the displayed source is the intended file.
Choose the available options
Set only the Scan to PDF controls needed for this output and review required fields before starting the job.
Download and verify
Inspect every page at normal zoom and print one representative page when physical sizing matters. Keep the source until the Scan to PDF result has passed that review.

Common use cases

Prepare a delivery copy

Use Scan to PDF to create a separate copy for a recipient without overwriting the maintained source.

One Scan to PDF job at a time through the current public workspace

Output

One PDF with each selected image placed on its own page in upload order.

Limitations to know

This conversion does not perform OCR, automatic edge detection, deskewing, or a guaranteed A4 or Letter page fit.
Scan to PDF cannot reconstruct source information that is absent, damaged, or inaccessible in the uploaded document.
Viewer, font, image, form, signature, and accessibility behavior can change after Scan to PDF; compare important output with the source.
No Scan to PDF result should be treated as legal, archival, accessibility, or compliance certification without the required independent review.

Privacy and document handling

Scan to PDF uploads the selected source to configured object storage so the worker can process it.
The worker attempts to remove temporary Scan to PDF workspace files after the job, which is separate from stored input and output retention.
Avoid using Scan to PDF with confidential material unless the published storage and retention information is suitable for the document.

Stored input and output objects are deleted automatically: files uploaded without an account are removed about 24 hours after upload, and files belonging to a signed-in account are removed after 7 days. A scheduled sweep enforces this hourly against the object store itself. Workers attempt to remove per-job temporary directories after processing. This does not delete stored input or output objects.

Read the Privacy Policy and Security page for verified implementation details and open questions.

Troubleshooting

Scan to PDF cannot start

Confirm the expected one or more JPEG or PNG document images finished uploading and every required Scan to PDF option contains a valid value.

Scan to PDF reports a processing error

Open the source locally, remove unsupported encryption where authorized, and retry Scan to PDF with a smaller valid file.

Scan to PDF output is not suitable

Inspect every page at normal zoom and print one representative page when physical sizing matters. If it still differs, retain the source and use a workflow designed for that document feature.

Frequently asked questions

Does Scan to PDF replace my original file?

No. Scan to PDF creates a separate stored output and does not edit the source on your device.

Is every Scan to PDF result guaranteed to look identical?

No. Scan to PDF depends on the source structure and processing engine, so important pages and features must be checked.

Should I delete my source after Scan to PDF?

No. Keep the source until the Scan to PDF output has been opened, compared, and accepted for its intended use.

How should I check my Scan to PDF result?

Open every Scan to PDF download and compare it with the unchanged source before sharing or deleting anything. Pay particular attention to this documented limitation: This conversion does not perform OCR, automatic edge detection, deskewing, or a guaranteed A4 or Letter page fit.
