Hello, I can't figure out how to create a scanning project in HP Printer Assistant.  In other words I have a large number of documents that I want to scan into a PDF but I know I won't be able to scan all the documents in the same sitting.  I would like to go back at another time and and add more scanned documents.  I hope this makes sense.  Thanks,

Welcome to HP support community.

 

You can use HP Scan to add the scanned pages to single file.

  1. Place the first item you want to scan face-down on the scanner glass, aligning it with the guide at the edge of the glass.

    Aligning a document with the guides at the edges of the scanner glass

  2. In HP Scan, click Scan.

    The printer scans your document or photo, and then HP Scan displays a preview.

  3. To add pages or scan the other side, click the Add pages icon  on the bottom bar, place the next item face-down on the scanner glass, and then click Scan.

You can refer this HP document for more assistance:- Click here

 

I hope that helps.

To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.

Cheers.

Thanks for the answer but maybe I need to phrase the question differently,  I understand how to add more than one image, but what I am asking is, lets's say I have 100 images I want to make into one PDF, I scan 50 of the images but don't have time to scan the other 50.  I save the PDF which now only included 50 images, can I go back and add the other 50?

I am afraid, that is not possible, you will have to scan all the pages at one go using add pages option to create that as a one scan file.
