Bring in a PDF chart

Read a chart photo or PDF back into a chart you can edit, checking the grid, key and colors first.

Bring in a PDF chart

Choose Bring in a PDF chart on the start screen and open your chart photo or PDF; for a PDF, choose the chart pages and key page first. Check the Grid, Key and anything StitchWing wasn't sure about before opening the chart. Bring in a PDF chart comes with the paid plans. Your chart photo or PDF is not uploaded. See Privacy.

Black-and-white symbol photos can get some symbols wrong. Check every symbol and key name against the photo before stitching.

Have a .PAT chart file from another program? Use File › Import a chart file.

On Grid, use Brightness and Contrast (−100 to 100, starting at 0) before the colors are read to help a dark or washed-out picture make a cleaner chart; Reset puts both back to 0, and the settings stay with your chart.
