Hello,

When you have a score of several pages and that your scanner does not allow to scan them in only one document here is the handling which I use.

For example, the 3 pages of the Amazon score of Jean CORTI...

These three pages are scanned in jpg format...which is not very practical for filing...

By downloading a free "print to pdf" software like PDF Creator, you can easily create a single pdf containing the 3 pages of the jpg score.

First, I had to download the 3 pages of the score and then save them on my computer....then, thanks to PDF Creator, I selected the 3 pages together in jpg format...then I clicked on "Print file"...then...in the printers list, I selected "PDF Creator"....

And hop! instead of 3 separate jpg files, my score is inside a single pdf document...

Magic, isn't it?

And bonus...instead of 1.70mo for the 3 jpg.... the pdf document is only 1.25 mo

Moreover, you have only one download to do afterwards on P-A.

Hoping that this topic will help to limit the downloads of the scores of several split pages....(it also works to group several pdf in a single document)...

I wish you a good Sunday,

Michelle

Hello again,

Noticing that the hyperlink I had inserted in the text to get the free PDF Creator software does not work, here is the link to paste and copy in your browser:

Have a nice Sunday!

hello

Thank you Michelle !

I hope that this will allow many people to deposit their scores in pdf (it's also faster to send the score)

I use ''Expert PDF 8 Pro'', but it is unfortunately not free...

So use PDF Creator, it's completely free and easy to use (intuitive) ....

You're welcome jmimi!

I know that for many people computers = Chinese!

If we can help by giving some little tips...all the better!

Especially since the number of scores available, to group the scores of several pages in 1 document greatly facilitates the search and classification!

Hello to all of you
I use Perfect PDF6 (paying), and here is how I practice my jpeg file, "click right mouse button" and in the dropdown menu I see the icon of Perfect, I click on it and there I have the choice to convert merge etc. ...., I do not know if this is possible with PDF Creator
Best regards
Theo

Hello,
I use command line tools.
the magic tool: imagemagick

http://www.imagemagick.org

I first convert the jpeg to monochrome tiff with FAX encoding "convert -threshold 50% -monochrome -compress Group4 -type bilevel 1.jpg 1.tif "and so on for each file (note: you can also use TheGIMP for this phase)
then I put it all together in a single pdf file: "convert 1.tif 2.tif 3.tif resultat.pdf "
Regards.Claudy.
