I built a small tool that lets you edit scanned PDFs directly.

Most PDF editors only work if the PDF already has selectable text. But once it's a scanned document everything becomes an image.

The usual workflow ends up being:

convert to Word fix formatting convert back to PDF

It's slow and messy.

So I made a tool that lets you select and move content directly in scanned PDFs, similar to how you would edit layers in Photoshop.

Still early, but curious to hear feedback from people who deal with scanned documents.
