    I don't have a printer but i need to print out some documents. Then sign them and fill the information out. Then have it scanned and uploaded to my computer so i can send it to the other person by email.



    I will be going to those public computer places to print the documents. But i first uploaded the documents i want to print out in an email account that i use but it isn't my primary one because i don't want to risk my main email account having issues since i will be logging into a public computer. I will then go there, log into that email account, then print out the documents. I will fill it out and then sign them. But now i need to scan it.



    I know those places have a scanner but i don't want to do that because they would have a copy of it on their computer though of course they would delete it. But i have sensitive information so i don't want to do this.



    Can someone recommend me a way where i could scan the document with my phone with an app for the iphone? I want to scan the documents and put it in pdf file, then send it to my email account. Then send it to other person.



    Of course if i had my scanner here, its easy as i would scan, sign and fill out and then scan again and then upload to my computer. But im traveling at the moment so i can't do this. Any apps on iphone you guys can suggest for this?
