## What is Boreal PDF?

Boreal PDF helps you turn paper forms, receipts, certificates, contracts, and
application documents into cleaner PDFs from iPhone.

Start with a camera scan, selected photos, or an imported PDF. Boreal PDF keeps
the workflow focused on the practical steps before submission: straighten the
page, improve text readability, fill in missing marks, reduce file size, and
export a PDF you can review before sending.

Key tools:

- Scan paper documents or import photos and PDFs.
- Auto-crop, rotate, retake, reorder, merge, or split pages.
- Add dates, names, signatures, freehand ink, and stamp-style marks.
- Compress PDFs toward common upload limits.
- Run OCR for printed Japanese and English text.
- Preview the final PDF, then save, share, or print it from iOS.

Boreal PDF is local-first by design. The companion website does not provide
cloud document storage, account sync, or server-side PDF processing. OCR works
best on clear printed text; handwriting, glare, low light, and heavy skew can
reduce accuracy, so always review important documents before submitting them.

Boreal PDF is free to start with 5 documents per day. Within that allowance,
form marks, compression, OCR, searchable PDF, and watermarked export stay in
the workflow. Pro removes the daily document limit and unlocks watermark-free
final export. A 24-hour Pro Pass is available for short-term access, alongside
monthly and yearly Pro subscriptions. Current prices, trial availability,
renewal terms, and regional availability are shown on the App Store.
