How to scan a document to PDF with your camera

Use your phone or laptop camera to capture a document and save it as a PDF.

  1. 01

    Open Scan to PDF

    Go to makemypdf.com/scan-to-pdf.

  2. 02

    Allow camera access

    Approve the browser prompt to let the tool use your camera.

  3. 03

    Capture each page

    Frame the document and take a photo. The tool auto-detects document edges and crops the result.

  4. 04

    Review and save

    Rearrange or retake pages, then click Save. The tool builds a PDF in-browser from the captured pages.

Frequently asked questions

Do the photos get uploaded anywhere?

No. Camera frames are processed locally — the tool never sees them on a server.

Can I scan multi-page documents?

Yes. Capture as many pages as you need before saving the final PDF.

What if my camera permission is blocked?

Check your browser's site settings to allow camera access for makemypdf.com, then reload the page.
