Hi 

Try PDF-Tools, this will allow you to scan to PDF, Convert images to
PDF, extract text and images to PDF, Mail/Post PDF's once made, create
bookmarks/Thumbnails and much more:

a demo is available.

> I have a new Microtek 4800 scanner (had an HP prior). I want to scan various multi page illustrated articles to save and read/print later. The scanner came with A. Reader and I've been scanning things into PDF format. Only problem is each page ends up as a separate document. Is there a way to get an article into just one document or do I need Acrobat or more than just the Reader?
