## What is Pagecrisp?

Turn separate scans into a navigable document packet. Choose saved PDFs, arrange sections and build a separate PDF with a cover, linked contents page and section bookmarks.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Open the library → Build document packet. Enter a packet title and add saved PDFs.
2. Edit section titles and use Edit to reorder or remove sections.
3. Build the packet and review the total page count and PDF preview.
4. Export the packet PDF or share an assembly receipt with input and output hashes. The source scans remain unchanged.
5. Changing the title or sections clears the frozen result. Build again to refresh it.

Use the existing camera, import, OCR and local PDF-library tools to prepare source documents, then assemble a packet for handoff without altering those originals.

WHAT TO KNOW
Up to 16 documents, 200 source pages, 50 MB per input and 100 MB combined. Encrypted or copying-restricted PDFs are rejected. Existing text and page orientation are preserved, but image-only pages do not gain OCR from packet assembly. Newly generated contents links and section bookmarks target the packet; verify pre-existing source links separately. The packet is exported as a separate file and is not automatically added to the scan library.

Built for iPhone and iPad. No account required for this workflow.

### 2.1 — 2026-08-07

Improved readability and accessibility throughout scanning, OCR, document review, and PDF export. Layout refinements make dense document controls easier to use.

### 2.0 — 2026-06-24

Pagecrisp 2.0 — a pro upgrade for the privacy-first scanner, leaning into OCR text and ID/signing, still watermark-free and 100% offline.

• Rich text export: save recognized text as Markdown or RTF, not just plain text.
• Document Insights: word/character counts, reading time, on-device language detection and keywords, extractive key points, and read-aloud.
• Business-card to Contacts: parse a scanned card and review before saving.
• Auto file-naming from the OCR (doc type, headline, date).
• Redaction: black-bar sensitive text (SSNs, cards via Luhn, emails) that's truly flattened into pixels.
• Sign & date stamp with a hand-drawn signature, plus an ID/card combine mode (front + back on one page).

Everything runs on-device with Apple frameworks — no watermark, no cloud, no account.
