Filozy

Your camera, your device

Scan to PDF

Photograph a page and get back a straightened, readable PDF. The camera feed stays in this tab — no frame is uploaded, and nothing is kept when you leave.

  1. Point at the page. A live outline follows the sheet of paper, so the crop is something you watch rather than something you discover afterwards.
  2. Check every shot. Open any page to see it big — drag its corners onto the paper, turn it, reshoot it, or drop it. Nothing is final until you say so.
  3. Build the PDF here. Straightened, evened out, and saved to your device by the same browser tab you are reading this in.

There is no upload step to opt out of and no account to delete. The code that finds the page and writes the PDF is the code already running in this tab; the camera indicator goes out the moment you turn it off, leave, or switch to another tab.

Your browser will ask first. Nothing starts until you allow it.

The viewfinder appears here.

Point the camera at a page and a live outline follows the paper.

Drag a corner onto the paper, or move focus to one and nudge it with the arrow keys — hold Shift to move ten times as far.
