[Hidden-tech] Scan to PDF

[Herb Singleton]

IME, most scanners come with programs that allow you to scan  
documents to various formats including JPG and PDF. I've owned a  
Brother AIO and a Canon scanner that both allowed this (the Brother  
AIO had a document feeder so you could scan multiple documents into  
one multi-page PDF). My last employer had a Xerox document center  
with software that would scan to PDF and perform the OCR so the  
resulting PDF's were searchable.

I would just check with the scanner manufacturer, they may already  
have a solution for you.
