Document Scanner Guide

Scan Contracts Online

Wet ink still exists. Counsel wants a PDF, not a rumpled photo of the signature block. Capture on your device, check the initials, then file it where your retention policy actually lives.

A scan is a copy, not an original

What this is for

Archiving a signed set, sending a counterpart, proving you have the page. It is not a notary, not e-sign, and not legal advice.

Why local matters more here

NDAs and employment agreements are exactly the files cloud scan apps love to train on. This UI keeps the bytes in the tab.

Quality bar: the clause, not the mood

If paragraph 12.4 is mush, you do not have a scan. Use the high-quality notes. Multi-page for the full set so exhibits do not go missing.

How it works

  1. 1

    Unstaple or shoot leaf by leaf

    A thick staple mound shadows the gutter. One leaf at a time beats a heroic angled shot of a booklet.

  2. 2

    Confirm signature and date blocks

    Zoom them. If the ink is shiny, change the lamp angle. A glare blob is not a signature.

  3. 3

    Export and store in the real system

    We are not your DMS. Download, checksum if you are thorough, file in the matter folder.

Use cases

Counterparts after a wet-ink meeting

Everyone signed in the room. Someone has to produce the PDF before close of business.

Vendor paper that arrived by courier

You need a working copy while the original sits in a fire cabinet.

HR offer letters

Signed last page plus the body, in order, one packet.

Problems we solve

Uploading an NDA to a free converter

If you would not cc a stranger, do not use an upload-first tool. Use this local path.

Missing exhibits

Schedules left on the table are how disputes start. Count pages against the footer numbers.

Assuming the scan is “the original”

Some counterparties still want wet ink in a vault. Know your deal. We only make a picture.

Privacy & security

No server souvenir

The agreement does not linger on Convertify4u disks.

No OCR surprise

We will not silently extract text into a log. Pixels stay pixels.

Pairs with quality guidance

Clause readability is a lighting problem first.
