PDF Ready

SIZE + SCAN + STAMP

Android PDF tools for upload-ready documents

PDF Ready combines the Android steps that usually happen right before an upload: scan or import, review pages, add a visible signature or photo if needed, choose an exact size, review the prepared result, and export a clean copy.

Android-first On-device by default Review before clean export

Start from the file you actually have

  • Import an existing PDF from Android storage or another app.
  • Create a PDF from photos when the source is a set of document images.
  • Use the scanner entry point for paper documents, then review the pages before Prepare.

Use STAMP as a simple visual step

  • Add a visible handwritten signature when that is the kind of mark the workflow accepts.
  • Add one visible photo or image asset when the document packet needs it.
  • These are bounded placement tools in Originals, not a full PDF editor or certified signature system.

Prepare comes after the source is ready

  • Choose GENERAL, IRCC, or CEAC and the real upload size target.
  • Use OCR only when searchable text is useful; it can increase file size.
  • Review the generated result before clean export.

Why this matters on mobile

  • Users often discover the upload problem while already on the phone.
  • PDF Ready keeps the practical workflow in one Android app instead of moving between scanners, web compressors, and file managers.
  • The final clean export is the handoff copy for saving, sharing, or submission.

FAQ

Common questions

Can I create a PDF from photos and then compress it?

Yes. Create the local PDF from photos first, review the pages, then use Prepare to choose the upload target.

Is the handwritten signature a certified e-signature?

No. It is a visible handwritten mark placed on compatible PDFs. It is not a cryptographic or certified signing method.

When should I avoid OCR?

Avoid OCR when the destination does not need searchable text and the size target is tight, because OCR can increase file size.
