Reduce file size without losing quality.
Court filings demand clarity. Blurry exhibits, crooked pages, or faded text can weaken your case or even lead to rejection. Our AI‑powered tool enhances legal PDFs: sharpen evidence, remove noise, deskew scans, increase DPI for printed exhibits, and redact sensitive information. Trusted by law firms and pro se litigants. Meet e‑filing standards, preserve admissibility, and present a professional case. Free trial, no signup required.
Did you know? Over 15% of court filings are delayed due to technical PDF issues. Our tool helps you avoid rejection and keep your case moving forward.
Low DPI makes text and images pixelated. Upscale to 300 DPI for clear printed exhibits.
Misaligned documents look unprofessional. Auto‑deskew straightens each page.
Faded ink or poor lighting reduces legibility. Contrast boost darkens text.
Dirty scanner glass creates distracting spots. Despeckle removes them.
Bonus – missing page numbers: Add page numbers after enhancement to ensure your filing is properly ordered. Add page numbers
Upload your court document or exhibit – PDF, image, or scan.
Select "Court Filing" preset – Enables sharpening, contrast boost, deskew, and 300 DPI upscaling.
Optional: Redact sensitive information (SSN, addresses) before enhancement.
Apply AI enhancement – The tool cleans, straightens, sharpens, and upscales. Preview the result.
Add page numbers or bookmarks if needed. Download the court‑ready PDF.
Pro Tip: Always keep a copy of the original unenhanced document for the record. Enhancement is for presentation only.
All enhancements are applied without altering the content or order of pages.
Many court filings require redaction of personal identifiers (social security numbers, bank accounts, minor names). Our dedicated redaction tool:
Always redact before enhancement, and keep an unredacted master copy for your records.
Real‑world example: A law firm redacted sensitive client data from 200 exhibits using our tool. The court accepted the PDFs without redaction errors, saving weeks of manual work.
Federal and state e‑filing systems have specific requirements:
Use the "E‑Filing" preset to automatically apply all relevant optimisations.
Tip: Check your court's specific technical specifications – we can customise settings to match them.
⚡ Need to adjust or standardise DPI without changing pixels?
Use our dedicated PDF DPI Changer to view, adjust, or unify the DPI metadata of embedded images. Perfect for pre‑press compliance, print workflow validation, and preparing files for commercial printing without altering visual quality.
Courts demand legible documents for the record. Blurry, skewed, or low‑contrast exhibits may be rejected or considered unreliable. Our enhancement ensures your evidence is clear and professional.
Absolutely. Scanned exhibits (contracts, photos, handwritten notes) can be sharpened, deskewed, and cleaned of noise – making them admissible and easy to read.
We only improve visual quality. The original text, images, and layout remain unchanged. Metadata is preserved unless you choose to sanitise it. We do not modify content in any substantive way.
Yes. Our redaction tool permanently removes sensitive data (SSN, addresses, account numbers). Use it before enhancement to ensure redacted areas are clean and irreversible.
300 DPI is standard. Our upscaling can increase low‑resolution scans to 300 DPI using AI super‑resolution, making printed exhibits sharp and admissible.
Yes. We use TLS 1.3 encryption, auto‑deletion within 24 hours, and never train AI on your files. An offline desktop version is available for law firms with strict security requirements.
Yes, many e‑filing systems have 25‑50 MB limits. Our compression reduces file size without compromising legibility – perfect for large exhibit sets.
After enhancement, you can use our <a href="/add-page-number-to-pdf">Add Page Numbers</a> and <a href="/organize-pdf">Organize PDF</a> tools to prepare a polished filing with navigational aids.

Enhancing a PDF improves visual clarity by adjusting resolution, sharpening text edges, and increasing contrast between foreground and background elements. This process is particularly useful for scanned documents, blurry text, or faded paperwork.
Several factors may reduce the readability of a PDF document. Low-resolution scanning, aggressive compression, improper export settings, and camera-captured documents can all introduce blur or reduce contrast.
Modern PDF enhancement tools apply multiple processing techniques to improve readability.
PDF enhancement algorithms work by analyzing pixel density and grayscale distribution. Contrast adjustment increases the difference between text and background while sharpening filters reconstruct blurred edges. When combined with OCR preparation, enhancement dramatically improves machine readability.
