I struggled with over 8 sites before I got here, and it was all I needed. Very well explained, not sounding too show off or tech savy, just plain simplicity. Good job.
Oh my God, your KZread literally saved me financially. I could not figure out how to scan and turn multiple pages into PDF to email my documents. Thank you I really appreciate you
Thank you! Extremely helpful and simple instructions! Made a large scanning project easy. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. It is still relevant and helpful two years later.

Ditto...and even 6yrs later. I really appreciate how direct and simple you made it.
I am not the most computer savvy person at all was trying to figure this out for my job. I looked at numerous videos that were no help at all until I came to yours!!! Your patience and exact instruction was just what I needed!! Thank you so much, I will definitely be following you for any computer questions or issues I come across in the future!
Thank you so much. Four years on and still wowing frustrated Windows users...Great job!
This is the most straight forward, understandable, and interesting explanation of a computer-related topic ever! Thank you so much!!
The top result on Google said this was not possible to do, yet here you are saving all our butts. LOL And it even worked with multi-page documents. Thank you!
Hey Sharise THANK YOU. Your instructions are awesome. By following them I was able to can a 14 page document and save it to a file as a PDF. Wow you made my day.
Thank you...thank you...thank you! My printer stopped scanning a pdf and I have been at a loss as to how to scan to a pdf. Your video helped me realize that the Microsoft Print to PDF wasn't working properly. I unclicked it and reclicked it and now I have the printer listed! You have made my life so much easier!
I especially liked the comment at 0:47: "It's a-coming!" Gave me a needed chuckle. Thanks for this helpful video. "Upgrading" to Windows 10 has thrown my computering into a tailspin, and now I can finally scan again.
Thank you so much as I was getting so frustrated trying to send someone something by a certain deadline and this was perfect and it all worked out.
Thank you. Excellent video. My Epson scanner or Windows (not sure) had error "Unable to write to file" This video showed me another way to scan using Windows fax and scan. Love that you showed how to make file a PDF. You're awesome!
Thank you so much! I just saved $70 by not having to subscribe to adobe for something as basic as this. You are the best!
This is perfect. I print to CutePDF. Previously I was taking multiple steps, including opening MS Word, importing the scanned image and then saving the Word Doc as a PDF. Thanks!!!
Had to send pdf only OSAP documents in the middle of a pandemic. Had no clue. Thank you so much. Worked perfectly
Whewww...I'm glad I found this video! It saved me from purchasing a whole new printer because I thought I needed a newer all-in-one printer to get PDF format. Thank you!
You’re a lifesaver !!! Needed to submit an app for an apprenticeship and they are only accepting scanned PDF’s !!! Thanks a bunch !
Ahhhhh, that's exactly what I needed. Thanks so much for sharing and making it so easy....I agree, you are a life saver!
THANK YOU!!! Omg I was losing my mind trying to figure this out :)

Thanks so much for this tutorial!
Super helpful-- thank you! Have you tried the HP Scan app that comes with HP printers? It's a lot simpler and can scan directly to PDF. Not sure why Microsoft has to make scanning to PDF more complicated than it apparently needs to be?
Thank you very much. I learned how to scan documents into Pdf.

Thank you! This helped me out a bunch and was super easy to follow :)
Love it! Thanks
very clear and so helpful. unlike the windows guidance, this was accurate.
I am having a heck of a time scanning. When I follow what you said I'm still having my document cut up into sections with boxes around them and then it prints out every chunk of the box so it makes like 5 scans total of different parts of the page. I've called Geeks, they get it to work for them from their end and then it does it to me again. Any suggestions?
i used to be able to scan to PDF without this conversion process. do you know what happened?
Thank you! You helped me troubleshoot my problem.
Thank you for making this!

Short and sweet: After you scan document using Windows Fax/Scan. Print the document and select "Microsoft Print to PDF" as the printer. Next, select the save as location, enter the filename and save. The video does a thorough job of covering the entire process if you're new to using the Windows Fax/Scan application and the Microsoft Print to PDF functionality.
