When I go to scan documents my scanner has started to scan as jpegs instead of pdf. I've tried several times to switch it back to pdf. It works while I finish my scans but the next time I go to scan more documents it goes back to jpeg. Where do I go and what do I check or uncheck to keep it scanning as pdf?

Hi,

 

Select scan DOCUMENT rather than PHOTO, it will scan af pdf file(s). My suggestion: scan from printer software (on your computer) will give your more choices.

 

Regards.

Thanks for the suggestion but I do not see that option. So far all I can do is set each scan to pdf each time. Any other ideas?
