How do I save a scanned image as a pdf file w/ my MG5420?

I just installed my MG5420 printer and when I scan an image I do not see an option to save the file as a .pdf file.  Is there a scan utility to assist in scanning documents?  There was a utility for my MP800 printer that made this very easy.

Hi delach,
It sounds like you may not have the My Image Garden software which allows you to scan documents to PDF.  You can download the software by following these steps:
Go to Canon's Support & Drivers website at:
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer
Enter your model name into the Model Name field, then click GO.
Select your operating system in the Select Operating System and Select OS Version dropdown lists, respectively.
Expand the Software section by clicking the red triangle.
Click on the file named My Image Garden.
After reading the details and disclaimer, click 'I Agree Begin Download' and save the file to your computer.
Once the download is complete, double-click the file from its download location to begin the installation.

  • How do you SAVE a scanned image from my printer?

    I have an HP Deskjet 3510 Printer.  How do I save a scanned image from my printer to a folder?  This is my first MAC.

    It's automatically saved,  if you use the Image Capture application already pre-loaded on your computer you specify the folder, file name, and type of file (jpg, pdf, etc...) right there. You didn't say what scanning app you use but I'm sure it is very similar.
    BTW because this is your first Mac I'd suggest book marking and using the Intel-based iMac Support link.

  • How can I save one specific page from a .pdf file into it's own .pdf file?

    I've got this 4 page pdf file, and I need to save just one page from it.  I know that there's the option of using the select tool and doing a copy/paste to an image file, but I'm trying to keep it as a .pdf and I can't seem to figure it out.  Any help would be much appreciated.

    Perhaps this solutions workability will depend a lot on what type and generation of PDF you got and the tech built into the program suggested....
    But ! (never-the-less)
    You could try to see if the "Free PDF to Word Doc Converter version 1.1" will work for you....
    I know it will not get you a single page .PDF but if the program works you could get a .Doc of which you might have the possibility to save a single page after editing it !(?)

  • How do I save an HDR image from Nik silver FX to a jpg in photoshop?

    How do I save an HDR image from silver FX to a jpg in photoshop. when I go to file - save as then option of a jpg does not come up?

    Since the hdr image is probably 32 bits/Channel, you would need to go to Image>Mode and choose either 16 or 8 bits/channel.
    Then in the HDR Toning dialog use the Exposure and Gamma Method with the Exposure set to Zero and Gamma set to One.
    Then you should be able to save out your image as a jpeg.

  • How do I save an edited image back to my iPhoto gallery?

    How do I save an edited image from Elements back into my iPhoto gallery?

    You have two options:
    1. Set PSE as your external editor, send the photo from iphoto, work on it in PSE and save it without changing the name or format (you don't want to see the Save As window) and iphoto will remember your original + last saved version, although you'll have to lose the edits to see the original again. This doesn't work for raw files and you will probably need to set the Editor preferences>saving files>on first save to save over existing to get it to work for other formats.
    2. Export the photo to the desktop, use file>open in PSE, make all the changes you want, save the file in any format with any name you like, then import the edited photo to iphoto as a new file.
