How do i scan multiple pages and sav it to my documents. It seems like i am only able to scan and save one page at a time

Open pdf program and save all the pages into the new file.

You have an option to create a multipage (PDF) file or single images. Please select appropriate option.

that should be because you scanned the pages separately, did you notice if the PDF document converted was the very last page of the 13paged document which you wanted to make a document from? if that's right, then you just only converted the last scanned page into PDF, to stick all the pages together, i recoment you treating them as images and using word to stick them all together with the "insert>image> from archive" adjusting the size of the image at 1 page and with each 13 pages do the same until you have a full document of 13 images in 13 pages then you can convert it into PDF

Did you look under the Sca > Additional Settings?

Also, I'm not sure that the 1180 can process multiple page scans. Usually you need a Document Feeder to process multiple pages. I believe that the 1180 only scans one image at a time.

Once you have all of the document scanned, you can use an application to open page one and then add or import the rest of the images to the end of page one.

The supplied Canon software is horrible, but it can be done!

Launch ScanGearStarter, choose advanced tab and click preferences button, then select scan tab.
Untick box "Automatically quit ScanGear....." then click ok.
(This box being ticked totally prevents multipage single file scanning).

Now choose simple mode tab, select the document type, dpi and document size.
Now click the green "Multi Scan" button, place the document on the scanner glas and press next in the new window.

The page will be scanned and the ScanGear window will return, just click "Multi Scan" again and place next document, press next. Keep repeating until all pages are scanned, then close the ScanGear window.

This will bring up a third window showing thumbnails of each page, any of these pages can be deselected if required.
The other important step is to choose from the pull down list Saved as Type: "MultiPagePDF".

Choose the location for saving the file and click save.
Hallelujah! .......stupid software.

scan in all the pages and search the Internet for a DPF creator software. or you can go to adobe.com and get the PDF creator (no free) that should enable you to save the document as one PDF file.

Try OCR Terminal,which is an online OCR service that converts scanned images into searchable text. Register an account and you can convert 20 pages for free every month.
Have a try and hope it helps.

OCR to Microsoft word ,then
You can find a software tranfer like DOC word file to PDF file.

What do you mean scan? Is it from the printer to the computer? Or just plain copy? When you want to scan to the computer, you need a software that can scan multiple pages. HP's document feeder can copy and fax multiple pages, so if the software supports multiple pages scanning, then I'm sure it can.
