As it is right now, Skanlite is designed to save every image immediately after
every scan. This means that if you scan multiple pages you will also get
multiple PDF documents. That is probably not what a user would expect.

Scanned PDF documents are just JPEG or PNG images embedded in the PDF document,
so why would you want the extra container when you only have one image. 

Printing a JPEG or PNG should not be a problem if you use for example Gwenview.


That said, if you have multiple pages of text, you probably want to have them
all in the same document. This would need a dedicated UI to allow also
rearrangeing the pages in case that is needed. I have started a project
dedicated for just that (Skanpage), but I don't think it is ready for general
use and I don't have enough motivation to continue it's development at the
moment...

More details about Skanpage cna be found in the duplicate of this bug 299517

If you baadly need a multipage scanning application on linux and don't want to
compile Skanpage, you can use gscan2pdf which is available in most linux
distros.

Saving to PDF is my standard use case.

PDF documents can easily printed out again.

Please,
Is there any chance for implementing this such a basic feature?
That is unbelievable that Skanlite can save to many exotic formats, but not to
PDF.
How is that possible? 
That is why I can not use this tool. I really need PDF support.
