# Look Scanned

> Look Scanned is a browser-based document scanner that turns PDFs, images,
> Office documents, ebooks, emails, and other supported files into
> scanned-looking PDFs.

The standard single-document and bulk scan flows render and process source
documents locally on the user's device. Accounts, subscriptions, usage quotas,
analytics, error reporting, and the optional API Scan use network services; a
file deliberately submitted to API Scan is uploaded for remote processing.

The core local scan flow needs no account. It supports real-time preview,
adjustable scan effects, PDF metadata, watermarks, signatures, stamps, and
offline use after the required application and locale assets have been cached.

The product UI has 30 canonical route locales. Prefix-less product URLs choose
a language adaptively, while fixed-language URLs use canonical prefixes such as
`/en/scan`, `/fr/scan`, and `/zh-CN/scan`. The blog has 34 route locales,
including 4 that are blog-only: `af`, `fil`, `sw`, and `ur`.
