Sam, I am using the File - Import - Scan feature to scan directly to SINGLE page tiff files. I have quite a bit of documents to scan and it would just make better sense to scan to TIFF and use a ACDSee to rename the files. Would go much faster that way.Besides I have run into this senario before and I need an application that will allow me to scan to TIFF and hold the size and resolution when converting to PDF. I have a Bell and Howell 2000D FB scannner. I am scanning to 300 dpi, B&W. Any ideas.........anyone?

In this particular case I have about 5000 8�x11 documents that I needed to scan to PDF. Instead of scanning them one at a time I used a program called ACDSee to batch scan to single page tiff, rename the files and used Acrobat 5 to batch convert them to PDF. I thought this would have worked out fine.but the sizes were all out of wack. Instead of 8�x11, the sizes wound up being 25.5"x34.38", and if that wasn't bad enough the quality of the PDF was terrible, although the TIFF image looked just fine. > > Two Questions: > > Does anyone know of a decent program I can get that would allow me to scan to single page tiff, keeping my desired size? > > How can I batch convert the files to PDF using a setting better than JPEG Maxium, which seems to be the highest quality incorporated into Acrobat 5? > > > Sincerely, > > Stan Drew > > > To change your subscription: > http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdf.html To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdf.html
