Since I was wanting to get a copy made somewhat quick, I used Libreoffice, LOo, to do it a bit ago. Thing is, it takes a bit to get it to size correctly. It wants to shrink it and it is stubborn about doing it that way. I just don't know of a easier way so I asked. I figure there is a tool for this. I have XSane installed but only used it a couple times. Skanlite was so much quicker and easier to use that I stuck with it. I tried XSane and I see a option for multi-page documents. I may play with that and see how it does. Another reason I'd like to be able to do this, pictures with names etc on the back. It would be nice to get both the front and back of those. Just need a easy tool to do it with. Maybe I can get XSane to do this too. Still open to ideas. Thanks for the info tho. ;-D Dale :-) :-)
