scanning multiple pages into a single PDF file

How can I scan multiple pages into a single PDF (scanned) file? I'm using Windows 10 on my Lenovo laptop and have an HP 4600 printer/scanner.

 

Scanning multiple pages in to one single document​

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you want to scan multiple pages into one document. You can achieve the task by scanning all the pages into one PDF file.

• What is the make and model of the scanner?

I would suggest you to refer the articles mentioned below, depending on the scanner you are using to scan the document.



For HP Scanners:

HP Printers - How to Scan (Windows), refer the section
How do I save multiple documents or photos as a single PDF?

For Brother Scanners:

Scan multiple pages into one file instead of each scan being saved as a separate file.

For EPSON Scanners:

Scan Multiple Pages to a PDF File.

For Canon Scanners:

Scanning multiple pages to a single PDF file using MP Navigator EX (Scanners) and

Scan multiple documents using the IJ Scan Utility.

Hi Stephen, your scanner does not have the capability to scan multiple pages to PDF. this functionality is also lacking in Windows 10

You will need a 3rd party app to be able to scan multiple pages to a PDF

A really good and free options is NAPS2 - Not Another PDF Scanner!

It is fully featured, can scan multiple pages into a PDF, it can OCR the text, so the resulting PDF has searchable text, not just images - this keeps the file size down
