Pages
Filter
Magic Color analyzes each page and maps its own background tone to white — good for photos taken under dim or yellowish light where the page looks gray.
Adjust
Everything runs locally in this tab. Files aren't uploaded anywhere.
A cam scanner online, without the app store
PDF CamScanner is the online camscanner built for speed: no software to install, no account to create, and nothing uploaded anywhere. Just an online cam scanner that turns a photo into a PDF.
Auto-detected edges
When you add a photo, the tool looks for the strongest edges near the page borders and sets the crop corners for you.
Perspective straightening
Drag any corner to correct a skewed angle. The tool warps the page flat, the way it would look scanned straight-on.
Multi-page export
Add as many pages as you need, reorder them by dragging, and download one combined PDF.
Frequently asked questions
Is this cam scanner online really free?
Yes. PDF CamScanner is a cam scanner free to use, with no account, no page limits, and no watermark on your exported PDF.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. Cropping, filtering and PDF creation all happen locally on your device — your images are never sent anywhere.
Does it detect the edges of my document automatically?
Yes. When you add a photo it estimates the document's edges right away. You can fine-tune the four corners by dragging them if the auto-detected crop needs adjusting, or use "Full frame" to start from the whole image.
Can I scan more than one page into a single PDF?
Yes. Add as many photos as you need, reorder them by dragging the thumbnails, and export them as one multi-page PDF.
Can I add pages from an existing PDF?
Yes. Upload a PDF and each of its pages is added to your document alongside any scanned photos, so you can combine them, reorder everything, and export a single merged PDF.
Do I need to install anything to use this camscanner online?
No. PDF CamScanner works as a cam scanner web app — open the page and start scanning. There's nothing to download and no app store required.
My scan looks gray instead of white — can that be fixed?
Yes. Photos taken under dim, yellowish, or mixed lighting often come out with a gray or dull-colored background instead of white. Pick the "Magic Color" filter and it analyzes that specific photo's background tone and stretches it back toward white, while keeping the text dark.
