Create a searchable PDF from OCR pages on the phone

Turning Phone‑Captured Images into Searchable PDFs with PureHub

PureHub’s OCR + PDF Document Suite lets Android users turn photographed pages into a single searchable PDF without leaving the device.

How it works

1. Capture – Use the built‑in camera button to take each page. The app stores the full‑resolution image.
2. OCR – When you tap Run OCR, PureHub loads the appropriate language pack on demand (English, Vietnamese, Simplified Chinese) and extracts text locally, keeping your data private.
3. Perspective review – A four‑corner overlay lets you correct any skew before the text is locked in.
4. Export – Press Create PDF; the app stitches the images and embeds the extracted text using Android’s PdfDocument API, producing a searchable PDF you can share.

Why this matters

• No cloud upload → full privacy.
• Offline language packs keep the app lightweight.
• Searchable PDFs make revisiting notes, receipts, or contracts fast and reliable.
