Scanning to a multi-page PDF file
Ever wanted to be able to scan in and send a multi-page document to
a colleague, or a long magazine article to a friend overseas? Use
VueScan's multi-page PDF feature, and you won't have to send them
as individual image files any more.
Here's how to do it:
Adjust output settings
- Select the Output tab at the top of the Options panel
- Click the two tick boxes: PDF file and PDF multi page

Load and preview first page
- Follow steps 1 and 2 in the Basic Workflow section of the tutorial
to preview the first page of your document
- Click the Scan button
Scan each page in succession
- Place the next page in the same position and same orientation as the
first
- Click the Scan button
- Repeat until the document has finished scanning
- TIP: You can automate this process - just follow the instructions
in step 3 of the Scanning many photographs in a batch section
Finishing the job
- Click the File menu at the top of the window and select File | Last page
- VueScan automatically names the file and launches the PDF in Adobe
Acrobat Reader for you so you can check it
- You may also take the opportunity to give it a different filename
at this stage
