How scanner apps writes PDFs
- • Scans are images of the page, sometimes with a hidden text layer from OCR.
- • The visible text is pixels, not letters.
What that means when you replace a photo
- • Scanned pages are pictures of text. Use OCR PDF to make them searchable; typing into a scan is a separate, image based process.
- • On a scan the whole page is one image, so individual pictures inside it cannot be moved separately.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Resize by dragging the corners.
- • PNG and JPG images are supported.
Questions people ask
+Will the new photo be cropped?
No. Resize it to fit the space you want.
+Is it better to edit in scanner apps?
If you have the original scanner apps file and a lot to change, yes. For quick changes to the PDF itself, editing the PDF is faster and keeps it exactly as sent.
