## What is Looks Printed?

Simulate the look of printed and scanned PDFs without wasting paper. Take any digital PDF, sign it in app and export a simulated paper version of the signed document.

Paper simulation performs three steps:

• PRINTING in black and white, with subtle printing artifacts
• SIGNING with lifelike and always changing slight variations of your signature
• SCANNING with simulated scanning effects

The final PDF will look like the original document was printed, signed and finally scanned. All PDF metadata will no longer be present in the final export. All processing happens on device, so your document is safe from prying eyes.

You can preview the results in app at any time with Virtual Printer. Try Looks Printed and save some trees.
