Ready PDF: Scan & Office Files

Ready PDF is a free app that scans paper documents into PDF and opens the Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files already on your phone. Use one app for scanning, reading, and sharing instead of switching between several. SCAN DOCUMENTS TO PDF Point your camera at a receipt, form, contract, handwritten note, or printed page. Ready PDF lets you crop the page and save it as a clean PDF in a few seconds. Scanning works best in good light with the whole page in view. Hold the phone steady and keep the paper flat to avoid shadows and blurry text. OPEN WORD, EXCEL & POWERPOINT FILES Tap "Open a file" on the home screen, then choose a file from your phone, your downloads folder, or a cloud storage app. Ready PDF supports: - Word documents: .doc and .docx - Excel spreadsheets: .xls and .xlsx - PowerPoint presentations: .ppt and .pptx - PDF files: opened in the built-in viewer Each file opens in an app you already have installed, such as Microsoft Office, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, or WPS Office. If your phone has none of these, Ready PDF tells you which kind of app you need, so you can install one and try again. READ PDF FILES Open any PDF on your phone in the built-in viewer. Scroll through pages, zoom in on small print, and find the text you need. Recently opened files appear on the home screen so you can return to a document quickly. EXTRACT TEXT FROM SCANS A scanned page is only an image, so you can't copy its text directly. Ready PDF's text recognition reads the words on a scanned page so you can copy them into a note, an email, or a message. SHARE YOUR FILES Send a finished PDF through any app on your phone, including email, messaging apps, and cloud storage. Sharing uses the standard Android share menu, so it works with the apps you already use. BUILT FOR EVERYDAY PAPERWORK - Save receipts for expenses, warranties, and returns - Keep copies of school forms, certificates, and ID documents - Turn printed handouts and meeting notes into PDFs you can store and share - Open a work spreadsheet or presentation sent by email without leaving the app - Read a contract someone sent you, then send a PDF copy to your team SIMPLE TO USE Ready PDF has a clean layout with the main actions on the home screen: scan a document, open a file, and view your recent files. You don't need to create an account or change any settings to start. Open the app and begin. PERMISSIONS AND PRIVACY Ready PDF asks for camera access when you scan a document. It asks for access to photos or files only when you choose to import them. You can decline any permission, and the app will still open. Documents you scan or open stay on your phone unless you choose to share them. ADS Ready PDF is free and shows ads to support development. WHO IS READY PDF FOR?
