Paperless Less Paper vs PDF Target

Less Paper is a native iOS client for paperless-ngx 3.x and earlier, the self-hosted document archive. It talks directly to your own server, and to nothing else. FIND ANYTHING The complete filter set from the web interface, custom fields included: title and content, correspondent, document type, storage path, tags, dates and ASN. Save any filter as a view, then create, edit and reorder your saved views without leaving the app. EDIT WHERE YOU ARE READING Fix a title, reassign a correspondent, add tags, notes or custom field values from the document itself — one Open menu leads to every section: Content, Custom fields, Details, History, Metadata and Notes, each editable when your account allows it. History lists who changed what and when, the way the web UI shows it. Select several documents and change them together, merge them, or delete them in one go. READ IT WITH NO SERVER IN REACH Save a document offline and it is kept on the device in full — the PDF, its notes, metadata and custom fields. The Offline tab reads those stored copies, so it works on a plane, in a basement, or anywhere your server is not. Pull to refresh and only the documents that actually changed are fetched again. GET DOCUMENTS IN Send anything on your device to paperless-ngx from the share sheet. Password-protected PDFs are unlocked on import, and the password is kept in the keychain so the next document from the same source opens without asking. The inbox then says what became of each one: File Tasks lists every import — which finished, which are still running, and which failed and why — and a failure can be dismissed once you have dealt with it. BUILT FOR REAL SETUPS Connect as many servers as you like and switch between them. Sign in with a password, or with the single sign-on provider your server is configured with. Client certificates, custom HTTP headers and reverse proxies such as Authelia are all supported. A restricted account works too: the app follows your user's permissions and simply does not show what you may not do. When something does go wrong, a local error log — with anything credential-shaped redacted out of it — is there to read and share, and nothing leaves the device unless you send it. KEEP THE ARCHIVE TIDY Create, rename and delete tags, correspondents, document types and storage paths, and set ownership and permissions on any document. Restore anything you deleted from the trash, or empty it for good. Works with every paperless-ngx from 2.15.3 to 3.x. Universal: iPhone, iPhone Duo and iPad — on iPad the document opens in a column beside the list rather than covering it. Less Paper is open source.

Your upload limit is exact. Your PDF should be too. PDF Target compresses scanned and image-based PDFs to fit the file size you choose—without uploading your documents to a server. BUILT FOR REAL UPLOAD LIMITS Choose a common target or enter the exact maximum size required by a work portal, government form, recruiting system, email provider, or document service. VERIFY BEFORE YOU SHARE • See the original and final file sizes • Verify that every page is still present • Keep page order and physical page size • Receive a clear result when the target is too aggressive PRIVATE BY DESIGN Compression happens entirely on your iPhone or iPad. PDF Target has no account, no analytics SDK, no advertising SDK, and no document upload service. HONEST COMPRESSION Some limits cannot be reached without making a scanned document unreadable. PDF Target uses a minimum quality floor and tells you when a safer target is needed instead of silently returning a damaged file. YOUR ORIGINAL STAYS UNTOUCHED The app always creates a separate PDF. Share or save the result wherever you need it while keeping the source unchanged. Try three successful compressions at no charge.
