I just finished scanning over 100 pages of a shop manual to my comp, saved them a JPEG's, downloaded the latest version of adobe now how do I get the pictures in there! Do I need to save them in a different format or something? I not too good with computer programs :(

I want to save the whole manual as a pdf if I could.

Thanks
Scott

You do have the full version of Acrobat, right? Not just acrobat reader? Worst case scenario, you could just zip the JPGs up in a zip file. Out of curiosity, what's the manual for?

Ok, you may have to open Acrobat first (Acrobat will open regular JPG images). Go to File > Open... and select all of your files. It will take some time for them to all open up. Then, go to File > Create PDF > From Multiple Files... and it will ask if you want to create them from all open files. Check off that box. In a window you will see all of the open files...you can drag them around to rearrange them if you want. Then click OK and it should make the file labeled 'Binder1'. Save that, rename it if you want, and voila! There's your PDF.

This is assuming, of course, that you have the full version of Acrobat.

Head here: http://www.openoffice.org/ . Pick up the latest verision of the OpenOffice software. You should beable to import the pictures as you would in word, then making a pdf of it is as simple as clicking the save to pdf button on the toolbar. Viola, instant PDF.

Whenever I make a PDF I simply use another prgoram to make the actual document, then print it as a PDF (the full version of Adobe has a built in printer driver)

Go here http://www.pdf995.com/ download, this will convert all files to PDF when you print. Its basically a PDF printer. Instead of get a paper you will have a new file saved to your specified location as a PDF, yet keeping your original untouched.
