Scan multiple pages to a pdf file using Windows Fax & Scan and a Brother MFC-7420 8

When I try a new scan with the charger (one side of scan) selected, the scanner makes each page in a separate file which is read by the photo rather than Adobe software.  In addition, the Brother scanner has been reset so that it will no longer scan multiple pages into a single file using my brother responsible program in my old computer with Windows 7.  How can I back to simple B & W scan multiple pages into a single Adobe pdf?  Thank you

Hello Norman,

I would suggest trying the following steps and check if it helps:

Scanning from the charger:

Step 1: Click on the 'Start' button on your desktop and type 'brother' in the search field. Point to the name of your MFC and select "ControlCenterx" (where "x" is a number one digit) to load the ControlCenter application in the system tray to the left of the clock on your taskbar. Double-click the "ControlCenter" icon in the system tray.

Step 2: Click on "Configuration" and select "Scan". Select 'File' as the type of scan to open the scan to the Configuration window.

Step 3: Go to the 'Touch' tab and choose "PDF (*.)" (PDF),"" # no multi-page Tiff compressed (*.) " (TIF)"or" # Tablet multi-page Tiff (*.) " (TIF)"under File Types, as these types of files allow analyses of several pages.

Step 4: Place the entire document in the ADF on the scanner and press the button "Scan" of the machine. Press the 'Arrow' key to select 'File' and press 'OK '. Press the button 'Start' to scan to a single document.

Scan of the glass:

Step 1: Lift the cover of the document on the Brother MFC, place the first page face down on the glass and close the lid.

Step 2: Click the 'Start' button on the computer and in the search box, type "scansoft. "ScanSoft PaperPort" and select "PaperPort."

Step 3: Select the Brother MFC as the scanner, and then select a profile, such as "B & W Document". Click on "search".

Step 4: Remove the glass on the first page after that latter was analyzed and place the second page on the glass. Close the lid and click the button "Scan more Pages.

Step 5: Browse all pages in the document one at a time. When you are finished, click the Finish"" button.

Hope this helps, simply reply to get help on Windows.

  • Scan multiple pages to a PDF file on a printer HP PHotosmart 6525

    I just bought printer HP PHotosmart 6525 and I can't seem to understand how to create a PDF file of several pages of analysis.

    I checked this forum using web and couldn't find the answer.

    Once the page is scanned, I gives me an option to save the file. The only other option is "Cancel".  After saving the file, I was able to scan another page, which is saved in a different file. How can I keep other pages of analysis without saving the file?

    The parameters of scanning as follows:

    Article type: Document
    Type filey: PDF
    The option to save each page in its own file is not checked.

    I use my computer HP software. I tried the digitization of the document of the control panel of the pronter with the same results. No possibility to scan several pages.

    I use Win 7/64-bit.

    Hello

    Open the HP software and select scan a Document or Photo.

    Select the PDF option.

    Be sure to check the preview Scan and set the resolution to 300 DPI or below.

    Click Scan and use the pages add to scan additional pages.

    Once completed the analysis, click Save.

  • HP LaserJet 100 - scan multiple pages to a pdf file

    The HP LaserJet 100 supports scanning through the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) which is located on the upper part of the printer?  I want to be able to scan several pages placed in the charger to a single PDF file.

    Thank you

    Simon

    P.S. This thread was oved LaserJet multifunction and all-in-one - the HP Forums moderator

    Yes.

    See the documentation to know how to scan with your operating system:

    Meanwhile, on which operating system you have and you use the scanning software options available to you.  Please note that the PDF is a proprietary owned by Adobe application.  Only authorized applications can read and create documents directly in PDF format.  If your scanning application does not support PDF so choose. TIFF and convert it manually with some other PDF writing application.

  • Help with registration of the PDF when using Windows Fax and Scan

    When I use the Windows Fax and Scan, I'm trying to scan a document and then save it as a PDF file.  What happens is when I save it, it opens Adope Photo Shop and will not let me save it as a PDF.  How can I scan a document and then save it as a PDF in Windows 7.0?

    If you have Word 2007 or later, you can scan it, then save it as a PDF. Works fine for me. I have a Canon LIDE 100 scanner, I bought for $50, which will also scan directly to PDF.

  • How can I send a PDF file using Adobe Reader IX and have use HTML instead of plain text in Outlook

    Hey guys

    New to the Adobe Forums. So hey... :))

    That's the problem I have


    I use Outlook 2007 to my e-mail client, Adobe Reader XI has been implemented already so that it uses Outlook to send from Adobe

    Whenever I send a new email or respond to an email in Outlook, it uses HTML. It is very good

    However, when I click on Adobe XI e-mail button. It opens a new e-mail message in Outlook with the attachment already fixed, but it does not use the HTML, I have no signature, its plain text all.

    Is there a way I can fix it.

    See you soon

    NATO

    As far as I KNOW, no. Acrobat/Reader will generate emails in plain text.
