| Scan2PDF | Scan2PDF converts paper documents into PDFs. You scan one
or more pages of a document (using any TWAIN scanner) and then hit the Make
PDF button and it will convert them into a multi-page, indexed PDF file.
It even works with Document Feeder scanners providing a very quick and easy
way to convert large documents.
Why would you want to do that?
- Document management; Imagine having quick and easy access to thousand
of scanned pages on your PC! Need to look up a letter, bill or article - instead
of trawling through a filing cabinet you can simply open the appropriate PDF
and click on the appropriate bookmark.
- To make electronic backups of your important documents and letters.
Everyone worries about backing up their computer data, but what about the documents
which could be destroyed in a fire?
- To run a paperless office.
- To easily distribute copies of documents and letters to many recipients,
regardless of physical location.
- Make a well-indexed archive of newspaper and magazine articles.
- The easiest and best way to display documents on the Internet.
- A serious alternative to faxing documents - cheaper, faster and better
quality than a fax.
