Crop images for Instagram: 1:1, 4:5 and 16:9
Prepare an image with a fixed aspect ratio instead of stretching it. In Change image format, choose a preset, check cropping or fitting and save as JPG, PNG or WebP. Check the platform preview afterwards: a post and its profile-grid thumbnail may display differently.
Reduce a PDF for upload: check the size limit and preserve readability
An upload limit is about file size, not just page count. Inspect the original, remove unnecessary pages from a working copy and compare compression modes. A particular target size or percentage reduction is not achievable for every PDF.
Extract PDF text or use OCR: choose the right approach
A PDF can contain actual text, scanned images or both. Check whether text is selectable first. Extract existing text directly and use OCR for image pages. This avoids unnecessary recognition and makes output limitations clearer.
Choose the right PDF action: merge files, extract selected pages, delete pages or change their order. A clear sequence makes it easier to check the finished document.
Find the right route between PDF, DOCX, images and text. First check whether the PDF contains selectable text or scanned images. That determines whether direct text extraction or OCR is appropriate.
Application PDF: prepare your CV and supporting files
Create your CV, cover letter and other required documents using existing generators. Then arrange the PDFs, combine them if needed and check the recipient’s requirements before sending.
Create invoices and quotes: choose the right document workflow
Distinguish quotes, invoices, receipts and payment reminders before creating a document. Use the existing generators and check amounts, recipient details and required information before downloading the PDF.
Turn photographed paperwork into an organised file. Capture pages with your camera or gallery, check cropping and orientation, then use OCR if you need editable text.
Prepare PDFs for sending: check file size and content
Check a finished PDF for readability, page order and file size. Use compression, a page report or a signature when needed, then inspect the downloaded final version before sending.
