Other Tools on PrintFriendly

Inserting a signature box is not the only thing you can do on our website. You can use countless tools to do whatever you'd like. Here's a little insight into some of our tools.

Optical Character Recognition

We're going to start with the Optical Character Recognition tool. When you're dealing with scanned pages, the text on them won't be selectable. This makes it super hard for you to extract the text and use it for the right purposes. Ideally, you'd want it like a Word Doc where you could select the text, but your file will act like a picture format tab.

Don't worry, though, our OCR tool is here to save the day. Just a few clicks and this tool will find and extract any text from images, and it's pretty spot on. Misspelled words and format changes are a worry from the past, head over to our website and see for yourself.

PDF Merger

If you have a bunch of PDFs but want a neater way to share them, try using our PDF merger. Whether it's a bunch of company documents or an album, people will appreciate it if you'd send them an organized PDF instead of multiple files.

Just head over to our website, pick the tool you're looking for from our menu bar, skip any annoying ads and unnecessary downloads, and get to work. With us, an electronic signature will only take you a couple of moments.
