Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. GetResize processes your files inside your own browser. They never leave your device, so the tool is private and works fast even on slow connections.

Is the text searchable?

Not yet: photos are images. Run the PDF through OCR PDF afterwards to make the text searchable and copyable.

Which image types can I use?

JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and BMP. iPhone photos in HEIC format and TIFF scans need converting first: use HEIC to JPG or TIFF to JPG, then add the JPGs here.

About Scan to PDF

No scanner needed. Photos are cleaned up so the paper looks white and the text dark: shadows, uneven light and the yellow tint of indoor lamps are evened out, then each photo becomes one page of the PDF. The preview shows the result before you create the file.

For the best result, photograph the page flat, from straight above, filling the frame. Crop photos first with Crop Image if there's a lot of background.
