Have you tried to open the scanned pdf file with irfanview. Irfanview may be able to read it since most "image pdf files" are jpgs. I tried on some image pdf and it worked.

Hi,
I am relatively new to Legacy and computers in general. I have recently been scanning a box of old documents and pictures onto a CD. Now I am trying to learn how to put them into my Legacy program. The pictures are easy. But I noticed on Geoff's beginner video that he has old family Bible sheets, land doc. signatures, etc. as jpg. I scanned all my documents in PDF and all my pix in jpg. Will I have to go back to RI (over 1000 miles away) and rescan them to jpg if I want to put them in Legacy? Or does anyone know how I convert them? I thought I had heard that JPG files deteriorate in quality over time and usage, which is why I used PDF. I have Legacy 5 Standard Ed.
Thanks,  Deb
