I always come here for help and you guys never let me down.

I need to make a file in a PDF format.  My scanner will scan into PDF but I want to make a folder with all the PDF files in and be able to have them listed in the side bar when Adobe is running.  

How do I do this?

Do you have Acrobat? Sounds like you want to create a portfolio.

I don't know how to get them in the bar on your program.  

I do know there are a number of PDF writing programs you can buy or download.  I have had good results with Primo.  If it is just a graphic rather than a word document, Illustrator or Photoshop will do it.

if you hit print under the options you can print to PDF. It will basically make it into a PDF.

this is a function of your scanner software that came with your scanner.  some software packages have this ability to make multiple page pdf docs, some dont

google gave this:

or you could just scan to multiple pdf files then find some other s/w package that combines them into 1 pdf.

I can make pages in PDF but I do want to make a portifolio of many pages.  

I do not have Acrobat just the free reader.  My scanner can scan into PDF format.

so you want to merge all of them into one?

http://www.mergepdf.net/ if so I've used this before, if you have over the limit just merge the first 10 then add more after. The only thing bad is the file size limit is 5mb

PDF Creator is free and works like a charm.

Open Office has some .pdf creating capabilities.
