5. Preview and export

Click Aperçu (Preview — the eye) in the toolbar: the document is shown as it will be printed, page by page. Click Modifier (Edit — the pencil) to go back to writing.

From writing to preview, and back

The standard preview is free. The Aperçu IA (AI preview) option (in the settings) asks artificial intelligence to rebuild the document’s layout, as close as possible to the original for an imported document; it is charged per page for each new preview (reopening an unchanged preview costs nothing).

For an imported document (PDF, scan or photo), the status bar offers two views in preview mode:

  • PDF: your version, with your changes;
  • Original: the document as you imported it.
Comparing the extraction of a photo with the original

Switch between them to check the extraction line by line, especially amounts and references.

The Exporter (Export) button in the ribbon offers the formats that suit the current mode:

Mode Formats Credits
Aperçu (Preview) PDF (.pdf) and Image (.png), identical to the preview; Envoyer sur mon téléphone (Send to my phone) free
Modifier (Edit) Word (.docx), to continue in a word processor a small fixed amount
Exporting a PDF from the preview, then the Word option in edit mode

A greyed-out format isn’t available in the current mode: hover over it to see which mode to switch to.

The Exporter menu in preview mode: PDF and Image available, Word greyed out

The Exporter menu in edit mode: only Word is available

To read or pass on the document from your phone, switch to Aperçu mode, open Exporter and choose Envoyer sur mon téléphone:

  1. A QR code appears.
  2. Scan it with the phone’s camera: a page shows the document’s name.
  3. Tap Télécharger (Download), or Partager… (Share) to send it by WhatsApp, e-mail or to another service.

A document created in the editor goes as a PDF; an imported scan or PDF goes as it is. No login is needed on the phone.
