Scan a signed contract to PDF (multi-page, every signature clear)

The signed paper contract is often the only full record of an agreement — the version with initials on every page and the actual signatures. Scan it the day it's signed, while all pages are still together and in order.

Method for many pages

1. Photograph every page in order, one page per shot, same setting. Include annexes and the signature page — especially the signature page.
2. Select all photos at once in ToPDF; they become one ordered document. Confirm the count matches the paper (“Page 12 of 12”).
3. Zoom the signature page thumbnail: names, signatures, date all legible?
4. Name it for retrieval by either party: “ServiceAgreement-AcmeCo-Signed-2026-07-02.pdf”.

Signatures, initials, stamps

Blue ink on white scans beautifully; light pencil initials do not. If initials are faint, angle the light slightly sideways and re-scan just that page (× the bad page, Add page with the retake). Company stamps in red or blue should stay in colour — don't flatten a stamped contract to black and white.

Copies for both sides

Share the identical PDF with the other party immediately — a shared canonical copy prevents “my version says” disputes. Because ToPDF runs on-device, neither party's agreement passed through a scanning server on the way.

Frequently asked questions

The contract is longer than 20 pages. What now?

Split at a natural boundary — “Contract-Part1.pdf”, “Contract-Part2.pdf” — or scan annexes separately. Most e-mail systems prefer the smaller files anyway.

Can I add a page that was signed later?

Yes — scan the new page and drag it to its place in the strip, then download a fresh complete PDF. Name it as a new version to avoid confusion.
