Universal PDF Eye - Scanner app which allows you to edit text

[muharremozkan]

Hello to Everyone,

My name is Muharrem. I am the developer of the PDF Eye application and my app just got live. There are many document scanning applications on the market. However, PDF Eye is the first or one of the first applications that allows you to create new text-based PDF documents by changing the text in the document you scan.

When you scan any printed document, it uses OCR technology to detect the text on the image, their position and size. Afterwards, it deletes the image representation of the texts in the detected area using artificial intelligence or a fixed background color. After this operation, it places the actual text objects in the relevant positions. Thus, it creates a new PDF file that looks exactly like the scanned image, but consists of modifiable text objects.

It has an integrated text editor. You can change the fonts, colors and places of the texts, and add new texts to the document if you wish.

If you want, you can create image-based documents also. It places a transparent text layer on these documents. Thus, you can search the texts in these documents.

With the Pencil Kit integration, you can sign documents or mark texts.

I hope you like my app.

I have tried it and it works well. But there are already a lot of similar apps, so it better focus on something unusual. Just an advice/suggestion For example on a security app that can protect phone apps from other people. An app that will scan the iris through a camera like it's written here https://recfaces.com/articles/iris-scanner. I think this is a really cool idea.

Thank you for your kind advise and you tried my app. You are right there are lots of scanner apps. But PDF Eye differs from them with generated PDF. It generates PDFs with real text layers, which you can actually edit. And you can edit it directly within app. You can scan a page, and then can change the any title or sentence on image preserving the page format. As my investigation there are not much app like that (actually I couldn't find any, maybe I didn't search enough).

Best Regards.
