Splitting pages on a scanned document

I took several pages to be scanned onto a flash drive and when I came home to download them, it was one big lump....and I had asked for 5 separate pages/files.  Now I only have Adobe Reader 9.0 and can't split the pages like you can in Acrobat.  I tried copying them each as separate images into word files but it didn't maintain the 100% size. 

Are you running on a Mac or a PC. If you have a Mac you can use Preview to separate the pages. If you have a PC you can install a trial of Acrobat X Std.  and then separate the pages.

  • 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.

  • Changing a scanned document

    Can I replace one page of a scanned document in one file with another page from a different file?

    Not with the free Adobe Reader no.

  • How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf document on a HP Envy 4501 Printer

    My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into one pdf document.
    I went to "Advanced Settings", clicked on "file" and made sure that the check box next to "Create a separate file for each scanner page" was unchecked.
    When I clicked the Save button it showed the page that I scanned and showed 1/1.  On the right side it had options for changing the brightness and Contrast, Rotate and Crop and "Back", "Save" and "Done" buttons, but nothing about scanning another page.
    Not to mention HP's Customer Support is useless!
    I'd appreciate any help I can get with this problem.
    Thanks,

    Hi BH,
    I see your diagram.  I just scanned something.  The screen that I'm looking at right now shows the preview page and the scroll box to the left of that just like in your diagram.  The screen does not show the + button nor does it show the red x button under the scroll box as in your diagram.  I can't see the plus sign because it is not there.
    I tried re-installing the software and drivers as you suggested but that did not have any affect.
    Thank you for trying to help me with this problem but it hasn't worked, therefore I can't mark the reply "Accept as Solution".
    I've noticed that on HP's support forum web page there is only 1 solved request for assistance.  That doesn't give me much confidence in HP.
    Please reply back to this post to let me know if there is anything else that I can try or if you know someone else at HP that can help.
    If I don't here back from you, I'm returning this HP Envy 4501 Printer to get my money back to use it to buy a printer from one of HP's competitors.
    Thanks,

  • HP Envy 4501 won't scan multiple pages into a single document

    My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into a single pdf document.
    I already made sure that the checkbox "Create a separate file for each scanned page" is not checked under the file section in advanced settings.
    After I scan the first page, I do not get a screen with a + (plus sign) that is supposed to allow you to scan additional pages into the same document.
    Is there any way that I can get a fix/update for my HP Envy 4501 Printer software that would show the screen with the + (plus sign) that allows you to scan additional pages into the same document after you scanned the first page?
    At this point, if I don't get this problem fixed soon, I'm about ready to return my HP Envy 4501 Printer back to the store I bought it from so I can get my money back and buy a printer from one of HP's competitors before my store warranty runs out.
    I am very dissatisfied with HP's printer software, their support services and their web sight that doesn't work half of the time.
    Thanks,
    Mark

  • Acrobat 10 not Scanning all Pages from ADF (Automatic Document Feeder)

    Acrobat 10 does not scan all of the pages from the Automatic Document Feeder from an attached scanner, and only scans some of the pages. The ADF works fine with the built-in Windows 7 Scan and Fax, as well as with HP's software, but it just won't work with Adobe Acrobat for whatever reason. The scanners that we are using are brand new, and the model is: LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276mw. The issue has been duplicated on four computers and two scanners, in a Windows 7 x64 Enterprise environment. A video of the exact problem can be found here: http://uncoolcat.com/work/LaserJet_Pro_200_Color_M276.mp4
    Would somebody be able to help us resolve this issue?

    Hi Varinder,
    Thank you for the suggestion! We wound up figuring out a way to make their "full feature" software (which does include the TWAIN drivers) install mostly silently, and install only if they've connected the device locally to their computer, as noted in the other post that was submitted a few minutes ago. I really appreciate all of the help that you’ve given us!
    In order to duplicate the WIA driver issue, use only the “HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color M276 PCL6 Print Driver (no installer)” (LJ-Pro-200-color-MFP-M276-driver-only-13170.exe) driver package. This driver only package doesn’t appear to have any of the files you mentioned in your previous post in the Scan_App folder for the TWAIN functionality (but those files are available in the “full feature” setup). We copied the entire “driver-only” folder to our plug and play driver folder, and the drivers automatically install. Once they get installed, there isn’t a TWAIN option anywhere to be found in any scanning application, just the WIA driver as far as I can tell. Adobe Acrobat 10 when using the ADF then skips some pages when scanning.
    However, now that you’ve found the install files for the TWAIN driver for the scanner, this should be a non-issue for people as they can just install those and use TWAIN instead, so thank you!
    Also, I find it rather amusing that you were able to help us with what appears to be an HP issue far better and faster than HP did or could. We spoke with seven people at HP, and not a single one of them pointed us in any useful direction or provide us with any useful information on the matter; had we followed any of their advice we would have lost countless hours (one person suggested taking the scanners apart and thoroughly cleaning the rollers, even though it was clearly stated they work fine from a hardware perspective with the full feature software installed and that they are brand new). So anyway, thank you. If you require anything else from us, let me know.

  • What version of Acrobat is needed to split pages of a PDF into separate documents? Standard or Pro?

    Need to be able to split PDFs into separate files dependent of what page. Can standard do this? Or will i need Pro?

    Hi asfkmg,
    Both Acrobat Standard and Pro will allow you to split a PDF into separate documents. Here's a great video that shows you how: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-to-break-a-pdf-into-parts

  • Scanned documents won't open in pages.

    I have an HP Photosmart D110. I have tried scanning and saving to documents with tiff, jpeg and pdf but when I open pages the documents are greyed out and won't open. I am using Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I am new to Macs and am not tecnical, please help.

    The HP scanners usually save to certain default folders which may not have read/write privileges.
    Look in the scanner panel and you will see that you can choose to save to another location. Choose your documents folder or desktop.
    But I think you are actually trying to open the scans from the Open dialog. Open is for Pages or other WP documents, not for images.
    You import the scans by either dragging them into Pages or by going Menu > Insert > Choose…

  • 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.

  • Edit an index page for a scanned OCR document

    We have documents that we will either scan or have sent to us in scanned PDF format.
    What we need to do is reorder the pages, apply OCR to these documents, fix up the OCR, generate an index page for the document, then trim down the generated index to just the topics of interest and merge together items that are synonyms or otherwise related phrases for the same topics in the index.
    Acrobat Pro seems to do most of this, except for generating and editing the index page.
    Which Adobe tools will we need for this job please?

    A set of pages, usually found near the end of a book that list "important" concepts found in the book along with the page numbers where these concepts are mentioned.
    Spontaneous human combustion ... p234, p1056, all of chapter 26
    Only in a PDF these should be links not just to the page but the place on the page where the concept is mentioned.
    So the work flow would be:
    Scan document.
    Run OCR.
    Fix the OCR.
    Extract Text and generate automatic Index page.
    Trim down the words listed in the Index page and glue it to the document.

  • 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.

  • Performing OCR text recognition in all pages of a PDF document which has blank pages

    The PDF pages in the file are scanned as an image, but there are blank pages also. So, page 1, 2 have images of scanned text, page 3 is blank, pages 4, 5,  have images of scanned text, page 6 is blank and so on.The series of blank pages is 3, 6, 9....
    I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 9 on Windows XP. I choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages. But, the OCR stops after page 2.
    Then, I go to page 4 and find that it is still an image(and I cannot copy the text from it). So, then I have to choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize  text using OCR->All pages. But, the OCR stops after page 6.
    The document has some 200 pages and I don't want to manually do the choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize  text using OCR->All pages for all pages which have text.
    I also tried choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize  text using OCR->Page 1 to page 200, but that too does not work.
    I can manually go to each blank page, delete it, then do the OCR but that would be tedious.
    1. Am I missing something in doing the OCR of all pages?
    2. Can I set up a batch process to do the delete of blank page series or can I set up a batch process which does OCR of all pages(and does not stop at a blank page) as it is doing now?
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hm, you could convert every pdf-page to a image file (jpeg, etc.):
    -install the package imagemagick
    -use the command convert
    convert -trim -density 150 your.pdf your.jpg
    This will generate a jpg-file for every pdf-page; "-trim" removes the white margins, density specifies the resolution of the page (you could also try "-resize" instead of "-density") and 150 specifies amount of  dots per inch.
    This does not generate a new pdf-file, but maybe there is a way to convert the images back into a single pdf?

  • 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!
