Scanned document missing pages

Have three (3) w/s, two (2) with Acrobat 8 Pro (8.1.2) and one (1) with Acrobat 7 Std (7.0.9) running in Win XPsp2 on Dell Optiplex 745s. One (1) 8.1.2 machine and the 7.0.9 machine have IE7 installed, the other 8.1.2 machine had IE6sp1 installed. All machines have Sophos AV installed which is current and has not caused problems previously.
A Fujitsu fi-5650c scanner is attached to each machine
All three have been successfully scanning large documents (100+ pages) to PDF to locations on the network and the machine's HDD for some time. Today, scanning documents over five (5) pages frequently results in some pages in the resulting PDF document being blank. This is regardless of whether scanning to a network location or the local HDD.
Only event in last week was user letting 2 of 3 machines install Windows updates,(auto updates have now been turned off), specifically KB945553, KB941693, KB948881, and KB948590. Significantly, whether or not the updates were installed, the problem persists. Removing the updates installed during the period has no effect. Acrobat updates are disabled and none have been installed for well over a week.
Anyone have any thoughts??

If you have a scanner, it usually comes with OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software. Use that to convert your scan to text and bring that back into Pages.

  • How can I save a scanned document in pages app on my ipad? Thanks

    ALso would anyone know how to rename a document in iCloud?

    Hello Yvonne.
    Specialized OCR software may be needed in order to save files directly to Microsoft Word format.  Our software does not have this capability.
    If you are attempting to scan a basic, text-only document.  You can use our IJ Scan Utility to scan and make adjustments.
     1.  Start, point to (All) Programs, Canon Utilities and then open the Canon IJ Scan Utility.
     2.  Click 'Settings' on the lower right corner.
     3.  Click 'Document Scan' on the left.
     4.  Under 'Application Settings' on the right, select 'Start (OCR)' and choose 'Canon My Image Garden' in the menu.
     5.  Click OK.
     6.  In the IJ Scan Utility, click 'Document'.
    When scanning is completed, Notepad will open and you will be able to edit and save your document.

    Hi @panduke, 
    I understand that you would like to be able to email a multiple page scan. I can help you today.
    I don't have access to the Cue 13 software that you are using, so I will provide a couple of ways to be able to check the setting for creating a separate file for each scanned page or not. If these steps don't match the software that you are using, please provide a screen shot of the software.
    Most likely these steps are similar to your software. Cue 14 software.
    Open the HP Solutions Center software for scanning, click on the Change Settings button, click the Advanced Picture Settings button, check Scan multiple photos to a individual file. Press OK.
    Lite v22 software.
    In the HP Solutions Center software for scanning, click the link Advanced Settings, click on the File tab.
    Uncheck Create a separate file for each scanned page.
    Press OK.
    Have a nice day!

    I have 5 jpgs - 5 scans from A4 - and want create a 5 page pdf document, each page a jpg, what to do? what is the easiest way?

    Mylenium gave you the exact name of the function. You could just copy that and paste it into the Google search form. You would then end up with this:

    First question- When I try to scan a 30 page document I get an error saying there is paper stuck, but its the second page and should be getting ready to be scanned after the first? Any ideas?
    Second question- how do you get the default changed to document from photo?
    Thanks
    I looked in the forum and the search turned up no matches.

  • Acrobat Standard Won't print first 1/2 page of scanned document

    I have a previously unseen problem.  I've had the program for a few years, but now it won't print the top half of the first page of a scanned document (some of them).  I tried to print something I scanned a few weeks ago, and it works fine.  That one's also in color.  The ones that won't print fully are black and white.  Any ideas?

    You're going to think this is impossible, but the problem only seems to occur with a couple of particular documents I was scanning.  I tried deleting the file, rescanning and resaving, then printing with the same 1/2 page result.  I tried scanning, saving, and printing a couple of sample documents (thinking I would send one of these to you), and there was no problem!  After multiple attempts with the problem document, I fed it through the document feder backwards, and then it scanned, saved, and printed with no problem.
    I'm using a Brother MFC-J6710DW printer, Windows XP Pro, Acrobat Standard 7.0.  I've actually tried to update Acrobat, without success for some reason.  The actual problem document is too sensitive for me to send out.  I'd like to hear ideas, in case this repeats.
    Thank you.

  • I have scanned about 1600 pages of 100-year old documents and saved them as pdf files.  I would like to search them for keywords and phrases.  Can anyone recommend software that can be used as an index for these documents?

    If you have Adobe Acrobat (not Adobe Reader) the program can perform an OCR on the document you acquired.
    In the past I used ABBYY FineReader

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 won't save scanned document in searchable PDF or .rtf format

    HP Officejet Pro  8600 won't save scanned document in searchable PDF or .rtf format
    The scanner scans the document without a problem but when I select 'SAVE' and
    specify a location and file name, a system error 'The HP scan application was
    unable to save the file to the specified location'.  It will save a regular PDF file
    or a  JPG file with no problem, but trying to save an searchable PDF or .rtf file
    results in the above mentioned system error.
    This problem occurs either from HP SCAN or from the 8600 scan panel.
    The computer is running Windows XP and the I.R.I.S. OCR software is
    loaded.

    Hello TrailsEnd,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're receiving an error message "The HP scan application was unable to save the file to the specified location". I will do my best to assist you!
    First, I would recommend downloading this tool called the Print and Scan Doctor. This tool diagnoses and helps resolve common printing, scanning, and connectivity problems, including: (This information is stated here.)
    USB: Verifies that the USB connection from your computer to the HP product is working correctly.
    Network: Verifies that the network connection between your computer and your network is working correctly.
    Device Status Test : Checks for device errors such as out of paper, paper jams, carriage stalls, and paper feed issues, and then provides instructions for fixing the error.
    Driver Check : Checks for missing or corrupt driver files.
    Device Manager : Checks for problems in Device Manager that would prevent printing.
    Device Online : Checks if the product has been paused or set to offline, and then sets the status back to online if necessary.
    Print Queue : Checks for and clears pending print jobs in the print queue (a log of print jobs waiting to print).
    Port Match : Checks the port settings for the HP product.
    Device Conflicts : Checks for conflicts with other drivers, such as other printer brands.
    Ink Issues : Checks the cartridges and ink levels for issues that affect print quality.
    Print Settings : Checks and adjusts the print quality settings.
    Test Print : Prints a test page for print quality evaluation, and provides options for cleaning and aligning the printhead if necessary.
    Scan Tests : Checks the scan mechanism, drivers, and registry entries.
    Let me know if this tool fixes a scanning problem on this post. If this doesn't resolve your issue, then I am going to recommend uninstalling the software. Please follow this HP document on Uninstalling the Printer Software. 
    Once this is complete, you can perform a clean boot on your computer. I will provide a Microsoft document here to help you. This helps eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program. Now, you can install the full feature software from the HP website here.
    Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great day!

  • Acrobat 9 Pro Optimize Scanned Documents problems

    Acrobat 9 Pro Optimize Scanned Documents only seems to affect the first page of the document when I try to remove the gray background that is an artifact of the scanning which I didn't do.

    But that's just plain stupid! I don't want 20 windows open when I drag 20 files into Acrobat for printing. I just want one.
    I wonder why they have done it like this.
    There are a lot of things missing from Acrobat 7 that I wish they hadn't removed. I thought upgrades was supposed to make a program better, not worse! Now I have to find work-arounds for a lot of things that was easy before and now doesn't work at all or works but takes a lot of time to do.

  • How do I set a default page size, orientation, and printer for a particular document in Pages?

    I have a simple label document in Pages which I print to my label printer. The label is 1.49 x 3.47 inches and needs to print in Landscape, and it needs to print to my Dymo label printer. How do I set up the Page Setup or Print Setup so it defaults to this document size, orientation, and printer, every time, without me having to manually enter those settings every time?

    Thank you for your reply. However, I could not get Templates to work correctly for me.  Following your instructions, I opened my document, opened Page Setup, set the printer, paper size, orientation, and printed a copy to make sure it was right. Then I re-opened Page Setup to verify that the settings were still correct. Then I saved the document as a Template. Then I found my template in Pages, opened the template, and tried to print. The first thing I noticed was that the template did not remember my printer. Then I set the printer, and printed, but I found that the template also did not remember the page size or the document orientation. So, did I miss a step here? Lion 10.7.5 and Mac Mini.

  • Is there a way to have Adobe Acrobat run in the background while scanning documents?

    This was working fine up until last week and then all of a sudden, the scanning program overrides anything else I'm doing on the computer (such as typing an email, etc).  I'm not sure if a recent update removed that setting, but I'd like to be scanning documents, but not have to wait until it's done to have my computer back.  Does anyone know how to change this?

    My organization is having this same issue.  Our scanners were using 9.2 Acrobat standardard to scan.  While they were scanning, they could switch focus to another application and work while scanning continued in the background.  Now, the twain driver grabs focus at the start of every page.  This must have happened because of an upgrade.  Any thoughts or feedback would be appreciated considering this has affected our productivity.

    I don't know if maybe using a registry cleaner would help.

  • Scanned documents saving as .BMP instead of .PDF

    I've had my laptop and all-in-one since June.  I've been scanning my little heart out and saving them as PDF's with no problem.  Until a few days ago when I was tempted to re-enact the printer smashing scene from Office Space.  Now when I scan sometimes it will save as a PDF but most of the time it will save as .bmp.  When scanning documents I select save as PDF but once the document is scanned and I go through the steps to save,  all pages are saved separately as .bmp instead of .pdf.  I haven't changed any settings that I am aware of and I'm not doing anything differently. 

    Hello there! Welcome to the forums @mistinlaci 
    I read your post about the scanning issues you're having and I wanted to make my suggestions to you.
    Here they are:
    Check for Windows Updates and complete them all:
    Install Windows updates
    Update Adobe:
    Open Reader or Acrobat.
    Choose Help - Check For Updates. If a new update is available, it installs automatically.
    Once installed, restart you computer.
    Try to print the PDF again.
    Run the Print and Scan Doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.
    Please let me know if the troubleshooting steps helped!
    Happy New Year

  • Need Help - Acrobat 9.4 won't open scanned documents

        I have a computer in my office that will not open scanned documents in Acrobat 9.4. Acrobat opens but is just a grey screen.  Documents that were converted to PDF from Word/Excel/etc. will open just fine. 
    Adobe Reader 10X is also installed on the computer and will open scanned documents, but user needs to be able to go in and edit documents, so Reader is not enough for him. 
    Any troubleshooting ideas greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks! 

    Since scans are images you need to go to Edit >  Preferences > Page Display and put a checkmark in the box for "Show large images"  This should allow you to see the scans.
