Edit a scanner apps syllabus PDF
Most of a syllabus carries over from last term. Update the dates, room, office hours, readings and grading details directly in last term's PDF. If it was made in scanner apps, you can edit the PDF itself. Scanned pages are pictures of text. Use OCR PDF to make them searchable; typing into a scan is a separate, image based process.
