Which tool should I use?
Add a note or visual signature
Annotate pages with text, images, highlights and drawing, or place a visual signature. Existing text is not rewritten; overlays are not secure redaction.
Try Edit PDF →Make a PDF from camera photos
Arrange and rotate photographs, choose grayscale cleanup and create image-only pages. Scanning does not add OCR or automatically crop page edges.
Try Scan to PDF →Combine or extract pages
Merge joins multiple PDFs in your chosen order. Split extracts a page range from one file; neither changes the words printed on each page.
Try Merge PDF →Reduce size without changing image quality
Lossless PDF optimization can reduce structural overhead. Already optimized or image-heavy PDFs may not get smaller; compare the actual byte sizes.
Try Compress PDF →Choose editable text or page images
PDF to Word extracts existing text and simple aligned tables. PDF to JPG creates pictures of selected pages. Scanned pages need OCR to become editable text.
