Mote PDF is a web app to access, edit and save any PDF. Open a document and Mote checks it first, telling you whether it is accessible, inaccessible, or a scan. If it is only a picture of a page, Mote uses OCR to read the words and turn them into real text. Students can then use all of Mote's reading and writing tools to read aloud, translate a passage, look a word up, or reduce distractions with the Screen Mask. They can work on it too: highlight, annotate, drop in text boxes, and sign and date it, all saved as proper PDF annotations that travel with the file.
Already tagged and readable, so the whole toolkit works from the moment it opens.
Mote flags it, then OCR rebuilds the text so the document becomes accessible and the whole toolkit works on it.
Detected as soon as it opens. OCR reads the words off the picture and turns them into real text.
Same treatment as a scan. The words come off the image and behave like any other text.
Open a PDF, and the whole Mote toolkit comes with it.

Mote PDF lives on the Mote app. Nothing to install before you open a document.
Drop in a worksheet, an article or a page from a textbook, or open one straight from Google Drive.
If the document is only a picture of a page, Mote offers to run OCR on it. The words come off the image and become real text, so Read Aloud, Translation, the Dictionary and the Screen Mask all work on a document that gave a student nothing before.
Hear it read aloud, translate a passage, then highlight, annotate, add text boxes, and sign and date it. Click save to Google Drive when you're finished, and everything saves as proper PDF annotations that travel with the file.
