Capabilities

Desktop App for High-Volume Document Processing

Pen to Print's desktop app is built for high-volume handwriting to text processing workloads that go beyond what a browser-based tool can handle. Ideal for archive projects, recurring document workflows, and large batches of scanned handwritten files.

Unlimited Pages & File Size

Upload entire archives to the desktop app in one session with no per-session page caps and no browser file size limits. Process large multi-page PDFs and high-resolution scans without workarounds.

Folder-Based Processing

Add an entire folder instead of selecting files one by one, and let the handwriting OCR desktop app do the rest. Ideal for recurring workloads and scanner output folders.

Flexible Output Control

Choose your output format — Word or plain text — and only on the desktop app, decide how converted files are delivered: merge all pages into one file or create a separate output file for each input scan.

Privacy & Data Security

Your Handwriting Stays Yours

  • Although the app runs on your device, the handwriting OCR processing itself is not executed locally.
  • All files are securely sent to Pen to Print's servers, where the conversion is performed and the recognized text is returned to the app.
  • We do not store, access, use, or share your content in any way.
  • All scanned files are automatically deleted from our servers the moment the conversion process is complete.
