NOTE: I am not going to mention any of the sites I visited that watermarked because one ticked me off so badly by saying it was a full functioning version and when I went to print it a big black stripe went across the pdf image I was looking at and prompted me to buy the full version if I wanted to print watermark free images. All of the top Google results did not have a free scan to pdf application…some had trialware, but they all watermark the the image that is created so that you will buy the application…and, I am being cheap today. Most had some kind of free PDF creation application that tied into Windows’ printing function…allowing you to select a PDF “printer” just like Adobe Acrobat does….except without the big price tag. I start with the standard Google search for “scan to pdf” and it brought up a number of different applications, all commercial, with some free offerings.

These days, we are rollin’ with the Perfection 1650 flatbed…OG style homey. It would man handle a 2 page document and email it to me almost faster than I could make it back to my desk. I have been spoiled in recent times because we had a very nice enterprise level printer/scanner at the office with a 50 page document feeder on it. This is great if you have an old flatbed scanner laying around like I do.ĭanielle asked me if we could scan a document to PDF recently and I forgot I had a nice “old” Epson Perfection 1650 flatbed scanner laying around (well preserved). Today we are going to learn how to use free software to scan a single or multiple page document to a PDF.
