Clean up Scans in a Snap.

Erase creases, folds, stains, smudges, stray pen marks and more with an industry-first cleanup tool in Adobe Scan.

With the swipe of your finger, you can erase unwanted artifacts, fuzzy images, or any other unwanted content. The “erase” action is essentially filling a selected area with a color you select (thus hiding that area).

You can perform image cleanup on a new scan or clean up the image on an existing scan.

Here’s how to get started:

1. For an existing scan, enter the modify scan mode:

• On any thumbnail on a file list, tap  
   
  overflow and then tap  
   
  , or
• In an open file, tap
   
  in the bottom menu.

5. Navigate to the page you want to modify.
6. Tap 

    

7. Select your fill color:
   • Fill with surrounding color: Use an app-selected background image as a brush color.
   • Tap the square: Choose a color from the color picker popup.
   • Tap the eyedropper: When the moveable eyedropper appears, move it over color and tap 
8. Zoom the image in and out as needed.
9. Swipe your finger over the area to erase an area.
10. Tap
