Scan of a multipage document. Combining JPG files into one PDF

How to merge several jpg files into one pdf document? The first time I asked myself this question was when I needed to send a scan of a multi-page document. What's the problem with sending multiple jpg files? It was important that the recipient viewed the files in a certain sequence and did not get confused in them.

Later, I used this skill to create PDF brochures from image files. Well, you may have some of your own goals and objectives in which this skill will help you.

Hello, dear reader of the blog http://lentay.net. Olga Alexandrova is with you. And in this publication, under the heading “With a computer for YOU”, I will tell you how I solved for myself the task of combining several jpg files into one pdf document.

When we scan a multi-page document, the scanner usually makes a separate jpg file for each page. And if you have, for example, 10 pages, then as a result you will get 10 jpg files.

When you create a pdf document based on these files, you yourself can arrange the pages in the correct order. And your recipient will simply flip through, as if you gave him a photocopy, stapled.

And for those who are left, I will continue.

And I have a gift for you - a small and free program Scan2Pdf (click to download - size 1.05 Mb).

With this program, you can merge ready-made jpg files into one pdf document, or scan directly into a pdf file.

How to merge ready-made jpg files into one pdf document.

Open the Scan2Pdf program (I assume that you have already downloaded and installed it). The software is very simple. This is what the program window looks like.

We press the button or select the item File - Load Image from file through the menu and specify the first file that we want to drive into pdf. An image of the contents of this file will appear in the program. In the same way, select the second file, then the third, and so on. how much do you need.

When all the necessary files are loaded into the program, press the button or select the File - Save to PDF item from the menu. Specify the name of the saved pdf file and where to put it. That's all!

To scan directly to pdf - a file in the Scan2Pdf program, respectively, press the button with the scanner icon or through the Scan menu.

Like this. Simple, convenient and fast! Enjoy!

P.S. By the way, for merging into pdf, the program also supports other graphic file formats (not only jpg)

For scanning in PDF format, as a rule, the programs that come with the scanner itself are suitable. If there is no such software, or it does not suit you, you must use third-party software products.

This software product is completely free. The interface is quite simple.

The name of the target document and the path to save it are specified in the first window of the interface. Before starting a scan, you should specify its settings.

There is a choice of color, black and white scanning mode, as well as the ability to adjust the quality of the output file. If you select the “Call dialog” option, a scanner driver window will appear before scanning, for more precise quality settings. Please note that depending on the model and manufacturer of the device, the driver window may look different.

When scanning is completed, the document is automatically saved to the specified path.

Answer from Evgeny Ryzhakov[guru]
A scan is a normal image. If you need text there, then you need a program for OCR - optical recognition. If not, it's not a problem to save the picture pages as document pages. Just the text will not be there as text. There will be text as an image. But the format will be PDF.

Hello everyone, sometimes I came across the fact that it was necessary either to quickly scan a document, or to install a free program for scanning documents in the office, and now I will show what programs I have in stock. These programs are suitable for scanners: Canon, Epson, HP, Xerox and many others.

1.Scan Lite

The most famous document scanning software, it is very easy to use and easy to understand.

What is in the program:

• The first is the name of the document to be scanned.
• The second is the path where the file will be scanned.
• The third is the scan button itself.

Attention! The downside of this program is that you have to rename the file each time (in step one), otherwise the program will overwrite the previous one.

Here you can choose the skin of the program, pdf (document) or jpg (picture), color or black and white image and quality. I think everything is clear here.

2.WinScan2PDF

This program is very simple. And as I understand it, is the most popular. But its minus is that it can only scan to pdf, and the author gave it the appropriate name.

Choose which device to scan from, you can check the box to scan multiple pages.

Well, the button to scan and exit the program.

3. ScanCorrector

And the latest free document scanning program has more settings already.

At startup, if a warning appears, do not be alarmed.

Everything is described here step by step.

1. Choose from which device to scan and what color to scan (there is a button next) to scan the next image.

2. Here you can edit the image a little, add brightness or contrast.

3. In the end, you can print the image, save it as jpg or bmp, or open it to see the result.

Pay attention to the fill checkbox, if you put it, the image will be on the entire A4 sheet.

Well, that's all, I use such tools in everyday life. Of course, there may be better programs, but they are paid and weigh more. These free scanning software are quite up to the task.

Bonus:

And some technology
