Why cant I scan up hard copies besides me being stupid

Sorry but I got no friggin idea how to do that ?? As far as I know I've done well just to get the bugger into My documents.

Bought a new scanner today HP Jobie, can you talk me through it.

somewhere in the menu there will be :

save file as ................

[terry57]

When I check properties it tells me "

Type of file = Adobe Acrobat Document . PDF

Opens with. = Adobe reader 9.3.

All I'm doing is pressing scan and this is what I end up with. ??????

Thats my problem as theres no bladdy clear instructions on Scan.

It just says " press scan " and it scans the picture clear into "My Documents" but when I try to post it on the door I get this bolliks. ???

There should be an options or preferences tab somewhere.

Rescanned it but it gives no Menu to change it Jpg, it just scans straight up in PDF.

Open the PDF with Acrobat 9.3 and go to <file> <save as> <jpeg>

As Dog and Begs have mentioned already, Ter.
You need to change the scan code manually, regardless if you've a drop-down menu or not.

I don't know, try again tomorrow.

Whats the scanner model?

[Marmite the Dog]

"How can I watch my TV without plugging it in?"

[terry57]

Open the PDF with Acrobat 9.3 and go to <file> <save as> <jpeg>

Tried that, no go its says save as copy or save as text. Nothing about Jpeg.

For sure I should be able to scan up in Jpeg and not have to change the bugger from a PDF. ???

Been right through the machine this morning and still cant suss it.

Carry on.

Whats the scanner model?
