How do you scan a document from printer to convert to PDF?

How do you scan a document from printer to convert to PDF?

Have the scanner connected to the computer.
Have the scanner software installed.
Check the scanner manufacturer's website for the most recent / updated drivers and install same.
Have Acrobat XI installed.
While Acrobat XI can make use of Windows WIA drivers Acrobat "likes" TWAIN drivers best.
So, if available, have the latest-greatest TWAIN.
Acrobat can communicate with the scanner via the scanner software.
An alternative --
Scan directly to TIFF. Then use Acrobat to create PDF from the TIFF.
Some scanners come with software to output to PDF directly; if present you could use that.
Be well...

  • How do i scan a document from the printer to send in an email to some one else i have a HP-B209

    how do i scan a document from the printer to send in an email to someone else

    Hi!
    To scan:
    You may press the start scan button on the printers control panel or use the HP solution center that must be installed in your computer to scan a document or photo.
    Scan to email:
    Some printers don't have the option in the control panel for scan to email. Mostly it is with the HP solution center software that should be installed in your printer.
    Note:
    For Windows the software is called HP solution center
    For Mac it is called HP utility

  • How do I scan a document from HP MFP127fn to my Ipad Air2 (both are connected to my home network)

    Hi,  How do I scan a document from HP MFP127fn to my Ipad Air2? Both are connected to my home network - the HP printer is connected by ethernet cable, and the Ipad Air2 connected by WiFi.   I can print from the Ipad to the Printer, but can't scan.  The printer is connected correctly (ie, it scans to another lap-top (windows 7) without problems

  • How do you send a document from ibooks to mail?

    Could I find out how to send/attach a document from ibooks to mail?

    Wow. You got me there.  All of the pdfs that i have, when i tap that icon, open a drop down window with the choices of e mail or print.  I wonder if the particular pdf you are working on is somehow protected?  Try a different pdf and see if the box recats the same way.   You might also do a full shut down and just try again.  Make sure there is not an old instance of i books, or some other pdf editor sitting in the task bar, by doblue clicking the home button, and shutting down any open apps.

  • How do I copy a document from pages into email (not pdf) and have color and format the same as the document created in pages?

    How do I copy an entire document from pages into email (not pdf) and have color and format the same as the document created in pages?

    Pages ’09 v4.3 and Pages v5.2.2 are entirely different document architectures. Consequently, copying and pasting a table from Pages ’09 circumvents the customary translation process  that would occur if you opened that Pages ’09 document in Pages v5.
    Make a backup copy of the Pages ’09 document that has the table in it, and then open this document in Pages v5.2.2. The table is translated into Pages v5 document format and displayed correctly. You can even select this Pages v5.2.2 table, and then copy/paste it into another Pages v5.2.2 document with accurate results.

  • How do you edit a document before printing from a mac

    I am having problems when trying to print a document from the web on my mac.  It is having weird breaks at the end of the page.  I do i bump lines down to the next page or  adjust the font size to fit more on one page?

    You can try saving as a PDF first before printing.
    You can edit the PDF say in PDFpen.

  • How do you delete 'GarageBand Documents' from iPad2 GarageBand App in iTunes for Windows?

    Using the GarageBand Application, I have shared my songs/files between my pc and my iPad and now I want to remove them from the 'GarageBand Documents' list in iTunes but I can not figure out how to do so.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!

    Hmm, this looks like a bit of a generic problem with the way iTunes manages supplementary files for apps. As far as I can tell you can drag pretty much anything into an app's private storage space from iTunes, and you can save stuff from it, but to delete you have to use the app. If you've dragged in something the app won't display then you can't find it to delete it.
    If you've saved everything you want somewhere safe then temorarily removing the GarageBand app from your iPad ought to fix it.

  • How do you retrieve Many documents from an external content repository

    We are using P8 to store our AP Imaging documents (invoices).  The conenction for this is set up through all the standard document management configuration using OAC0, OAC3, etc.
    I wrote an ALV program that allows the users to search SAP and it will give them the unique GuiID that is passed between SAP and P8.  This works great for retrieving document data, and then in the ALV layout I have a hot spot on the document number so it will launch SAP function module: ARCHIV_GET_CONNECTIONS and display the invoice using standard functionality.
    The client has recently recieved a request to pull over 2500 invoices and save them in a folder for review.  I tested BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHECKOUTVIEW2 and it either doesn't allow me to connect to the P8 system, or I'm filling out the document type and document nuber different from what SAP expects.
    Question:
    Has anyone recieved a similar request to extract multiple documents from a content repository and what did you use to accomplish this?
    Thanks,
    Anthony

    After the weekend has past, could it be true?  No one has had to do this yet?
    Thanks,

  • How can I scan multiple pages from the ADF to one pdf file?

    I wirelessly scan double-sided multiple-page documents, typically 37 pages, using an ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) from my HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g to my MacBook Pro. The scanner works fine except it tries to save the files as 37 separate files and either it or the MacBook runs out of memory as it turns it into a massive file, 300mb or so. How can I get it to just scan it as one file? I have the quality setting at 300dpi.

    Hello again webbo51,
    Thanks for the information I requested.
    I am going to add a screen shot of what you should be seeing when scanning with the HP software.
    You must have PDF selected to be able to scan a multiple page document into one folder.
    Once you select PDF, you will see the option to Save as one file.
    Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions.
    Thanks again for your time.

    If you have iOS 5 on the iPad and enabled iCloud in Pages, you can go on your Mac and go to http://icloud.com, then click iWork, then click the gear icon and upload the document. It should appear on your iPad.
    If you have an older OS on the iPad, you will need to plug in to the Mac and launch iTunes. Click on the iPad under DEVICES. Then click on the Apps tab up top. Scroll down until you see a File Sharing section. Click on Pages, then click on the "Add" button.
