Frequently asked questions

How does it make a photo look scanned?
A perspective (homography) transform flattens the angled page into a straight rectangle, then background-flattening and contrast remove shadows and even out lighting.
Can I erase shadows or dark edges?
Yes — there is a manual eraser plus a one-click auto-trim for dark areas around the edges.
Is the photo uploaded anywhere?
No. The whole process runs in your browser.
