About

Reader Ink

Read full description

Reader Ink is a fast, focused PDF app for iPhone and iPad. Read comfortably, mark up with Apple Pencil, fill and sign forms, and listen to any document — all in one calm, native app. READING THAT FEELS RIGHT • Three reading tones — light, warm sepia, and a true dark mode that inverts the page while keeping photos, charts, and colored diagrams intact. • Full-width pages, fluid scrolling, and instant open even for very large documents. • Continuous or single-page layouts, pinch to zoom, and fit-to-width in one tap. • Move fast with a thumbnail grid, the document outline (table of contents), and your own bookmarks. • Open several documents at once as tabs, and keep your place across sessions. FIND ANYTHING INSTANTLY • One fast search with results grouped by page and the current match clearly emphasized. • Match case and whole-words options; full keyboard shortcuts on iPad and Mac. MARK UP WITH APPLE PENCIL — OR YOUR FINGER • Apple’s own tool palette floats right on the live page: pen, highlighter, marker, eraser, and ruler. • Highlight, underline, and strike through text that snaps to the lines. • Add shapes, stamps (Approved, Confidential, Draft, date), and sticky notes. • Everything is written as standard PDF annotations, so your work opens correctly in Preview, Acrobat, and everywhere else. • See every highlight and note in one list — search it, filter by type and color, tap to jump, edit in place. • Share a flattened copy or a clean, unmarked copy; your original is never changed. FILL & SIGN • Tap form fields and type; move through them with next and previous. • Create your signature once — draw it, type it, or capture it from a photo — store it securely on device, and reuse it anytime. • Add a date stamp, then share a flattened, signed copy. The original document stays untouched. LISTEN TO ANY DOCUMENT • Read aloud sentence by sentence, with the spoken sentence highlighted on the page. • Choose the voice and speed; the page language is detected automatically. • Control playback from the Lock Screen and headphones. LOOK UP & TRANSLATE • Select text to look up definitions, translate, or search the web — right from the page. NEVER LOSE YOUR WORK • Local version history keeps earlier versions of every document; go back anytime without losing anything. • Automatic recovery restores your document if the app is interrupted. WORKS WITH YOUR FILES • Edit documents in place in the Files app and iCloud Drive — no importing, no separate library. DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE • Built with VoiceOver document structure, Dynamic Type, Reduce Transparency, Reduce Motion, and Differentiate Without Color. • Fully localized in 23 languages. Reader Ink brings reading, annotation, forms, signatures, and read-aloud together in one place — precise, quiet, and right at home on Apple devices. PDF viewer, PDF editor, PDF converter and PDF scanner — all in one app. Convert PDF to Word, PDF to Excel, PDF to PowerPoint and PDF to JPG. Scan to PDF with OCR.
