Can I import an existing PDF into PrivateProScanner?
Yes. PrivateProScanner is not limited to documents created with its built-in scanner.
If a PDF already exists on your iPhone or is available through the iOS file picker, you can import it into PrivateProScanner and work with it alongside your scanned documents.
This is useful when a file arrives by email, is downloaded from a website, comes from a colleague, or was created earlier in another app. There is no reason to print and rescan a document just to add it to your archive.
Once imported, the PDF appears with the rest of your PrivateProScanner documents. You can open it, review it, rename it, and use the tools available in the app.
For example, you may want to convert PDF pages to JPEG, PNG, or TIFF, prepare a Word document, or extract available text from supported PDFs. The imported file becomes part of the same workflow as a document you scanned yourself.
Importing is also useful for organization. Instead of keeping one PDF in Downloads, another in Mail, and a third somewhere else, you can bring the files you actually need into one workspace.
PrivateProScanner is designed around local work with your document archive. You do not need to upload a file to a developer-operated cloud simply to store it inside the app or reopen it later.
For sensitive documents, you can also use the app’s additional access-control options. This lets you combine ordinary PDF work with a stronger privacy model.
