You can scan multiple pages of a document using the ADF and save them as one PDF file on your computer. EPSON Scan displays an editing page so you can view the pages as you scan them and reorder, rotate, or delete them as necessary. You can also scan one page at a time on the document table and save it as a PDF file.

Note:

If you are scanning from Adobe Acrobat 7 on a Macintosh system, you may not be able to use the ADF to scan multiple pages. Use the document table to scan your pages individually, or scan multiple pages using EPSON Scan as described below.

Place your original document on the scanner. See one of these sections for instructions:

If you are scanning using the ADF, load your document. See Loading Documents in the Automatic Document Feeder If you are scanning from the document table, see Placing Originals on the Document Table
