Grahamfff   10 #1 Posted August 11, 2013 (edited) I want to buy a scanner. Will most scanners allow me to scan several pages into a single file? Will most scanners these days produce a PDF file as well as a jpeg? Thanks. Edited August 11, 2013 by Grahamfff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
me-and-pippo   12 #2 Posted August 11, 2013 The first thing to consider is, will the scanner be compatible with your operating system ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Grahamfff   10 #3 Posted August 11, 2013 Yes, thanks but I hadn't forgotten this. My computer is a Mac running the latest OS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
steelcityuk   10 #4 Posted August 14, 2013 Some scanners have a document feeder and automatically scan to PDF. I've only seen/used one, it's an agfa product I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Guest   #5 Posted August 14, 2013 My dad has a Canon one but he uses that mainly for scanning negatives at the moment. Check the manufacturers websites, they'll normally tell you what software comes bundled and what you can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
