Catalog jpg scans to single pdf

[Ballatician]

Hi all,

I downloaded a bunch of magazine scans from an old catalog that someone posted online in jpg format. I would like to put them all together into a single digital catalog like a pdf. Any idea how to go about this?

I have only read so far to paste each as an image in Word and then print to pdf. That could work but the scans aren't all straight and it is tedious to try and make the Word pages the right size to show minimal white border and not scale the pages awkwardly.

Surely this can be done in CS5 or something?

TIA

You can do it with the output workspace in Bridge. I think it's pretty straight forward once you have that up. You select all the images you want included in the content panel. You may need to tweak some of the settings in the output panel. Then scroll to the bottom of the panel and click "save."

Hmm I've never used Bridge but I will try it out and see what happens. Thanks for the tip.

Unless I'm missing something you can just print them all straight to PDF. Something like PDFredirect will let you accumulate all of the prints before making the PDF.
