CREATE
* Ready-made photo layouts, or build your own custom template
* Type captions straight onto the page preview, exactly where they will print
* Cover pages, headers and footers with your logo and automatic page numbers
* Paper size, orientation, margins, spacing, scaling and image quality, all remembered for next time

SCAN
* Automatic page edge detection and straightening
* A warning when a photo is blurry, so you can retake it before exporting
* ID card mode places both sides on a single page

* Send photos or PDFs to PDF Maker from any other app

PROTECT
* Lock a PDF with a password, one file or many at once, and remove passwords you own
* Hide private details: names, numbers and addresses are found and removed for you

ON-DEVICE INTELLIGENCE
