There is a program called SDI Convert ( http://www.sdicgm.com ), that will allow you to either convert a single tif image or do a batch of them to PDF. This tool will also convert other images to PDF or PDF images to other formats also. I have used this tool converting as many as 5000 CGM graphics to PDF at a time and it does a great job and is very fast.

What type of scanner are you using?, What are your scanner settings (resolution, color, ...)? Wondering, Sam Brenner >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/14/03 09:08:52 >>> In the past I have always scanned directly to PDF, and that has worked out just fine. In this particular case I have about 5000 8�x11 documents that I needed to scan to PDF. Instead of scanning them one at a time I used a program called ACDSee to batch scan to single page tiff, rename the files and used Acrobat 5 to batch convert them to PDF. I thought this would have worked out fine.but the sizes were all out of wack. Instead of 8�x11, the sizes wound up being 25.5"x34.38", and if that wasn't bad enough the quality of the PDF was terrible, although the TIFF image looked just fine. Two Questions: Does anyone know of a decent program I can get that would allow me to scan to single page tiff, keeping my desired size? How can I batch convert the files to PDF using a setting better than JPEG Maxium, which seems to be the highest quality incorporated into Acrobat 5?
