How to scan Aadhaar front and back on one page
Use OwnPDF's ID card scanner: photograph the front, then the back, and OwnPDF places both sides on one A4 page at real size, ready to print, upload or self-attest.
Steps
- Open OwnPDF and choose the ID card scanner.
- Scan the front of the card, then the back. Edge detection crops each side; drag the corners with the magnifier if needed.
- OwnPDF lays both sides on one A4 page at real size.
- Save as PDF, or add your signature, name and date with Self-attest.
The same works for PAN cards and driving licences.
Keep your ID private
ID cards carry personal details. OwnPDF scans offline and keeps files on your phone; you can also move them into Private Files, an encrypted folder that opens with your fingerprint. To hide a number before sharing, use Redact.
Questions
Is the printed copy real size?
Yes. OwnPDF places each side at real ID-card size on an A4 page, so a print matches the card.
Is my Aadhaar uploaded anywhere?
No. OwnPDF works offline and keeps your scans on your phone.
