Scanning text to be able to edit in Pages

[TartanPrint]

I need to be able to scan documents to my MacBook Pro and then edit them using Pages.  At present I cannot do this as I can only get pdfs of images, neither of which edit.  Please would someone provide me with a, if possible simple, solution?  Thanks.

Hi! @TartanPrint, Welcome to HP forums.

I understand that you ned to know how to scan documents to your Macbook and edit the pages.

Don't worry I will try to help you out.

Please try the steps recommended below.

Download and install the HP Easy Scan app (in English) from the App Store.
If the app does not automatically open, search the Mac for the scan, then click HP Easy Scan in the list of results.
Place the document or photo printed side down on the scanner glass, then close the scanner lid.
If your printer has an automatic document feeder (ADF), you can use it to scan multiple page documents at one time. Do not load photos in the ADF to prevent damage to the photos and the printer.
In HP Easy Scan, select your printer name from the Scanner drop-down menu.
Select your scan type from the Presets menu.
To change any basic settings to the preset you selected, click Edit Settings.
Click Scan.
Click Scan Next Item to add additional pages, or click Done.
Click the thumbnail version of the scanned item in the left panel. The item displays in the right preview pane.
Click Edit to adjust colors, straighten the scan, or crop the size.
To save your scans to a folder on the Mac, click Send in the bottom right corner of the window, then click Folder.
In the window that displays, click the Where menu to browse to the folder you want to save the file to, and In the format section select text from drop down then click Save.
To view your scan, open the folder in which you saved the scan, then double-click the file.

Have a beautiful day ahead! 🙂
