Frequently asked questions

Why does a dark table help?

The tool finds the page by its white paper. A dark or wooden table makes the edges easy to see.

Which look should I choose?

"Clean colour" for certificates with stamps and seals, "Clean black & white" for printed text pages, which also makes the smallest files.

Is my certificate uploaded?

No. The scan is made on your own phone or computer and never sent anywhere.
