Method 1. You can place your document in either the tray where it will feed automatically into the scanner, or you can open the lid and place each paper on the glass.
The scanner you have should tell you in the manual how to best scan documents. In most cases, you can press a Scan button on your physical scanner to begin scanning. Your computer, whether Mac or Windows, should also have a corresponding software that you can open that will also let you initiate the scan. For example, if you have a Brother scanner, you'll find a software called "Control Center 3" in either your Start Menu or Applications folder.
If you put your document in the automatic document feeder and the scan finishes satisfactorily, you can click to save the file and skip the rest of the steps. If you're lifting the lid and placing a page on the scanner glass, you'll need to scan each page individually. If you're not satisfied with the scanning on the previous page, you can readjust it and re-scan before continuing.
If you're scanning with the automatic document feeder, all the pages in the document will automatically save in the same PDF. Some scanners, like the Brother and HP scanners, if you scan by setting your document on the glass, will display a scan preview after each scan. You can click the icon that looks like a plus sign in a piece of paper or Start to scan a page on the glass.
When the preview window pops up again, you can repeat the previous steps to change the paper and click Start to add as many pages as you need. If you want to edit your pages, click Edit page and you can change the settings of the page before saving the final file. Method 2. This app icon looks like a red scanner that you can find on one of your Home screens, in the app drawer, or by searching. When you open the app for the first time, you need to give the app permissions to use your camera and access your storage.
Scan your first page. Line up your camera to the first page of what you want to scan, then tap the red icon at the bottom of your screen.
The image you captured goes into your media and you can either continue adding pages. Tap the thumbnail image to the right of the red button when you're done. This will take you to the next step in creating a PDF. Swipe through all your images and select a filter. The image will display in the top half of the screen while the editing bar is below. Tap Save. You'll see this in the upper right corner.
