There is no option to scan as pdf on my 4625 HP scanner (tif, jpg etc are available), how can I add pdf?

SOURCE: cant save a scanned document as a pdf

You have to make sure your telling your scanner what your scanning. Most often it defaults as a mixed image meaning text and image. You have to tell it to scan text only and then see what options you have. If this doesnt help then do as i stated above choosing text only and save to computer as a microsoft word document. Now make sure you have latest Acrobat reader 9.0 installed and now with your word document open in top left File button there should be an option to convert to pdf format. I hope this helps and good luck

SOURCE: I need to scan documents

You can scan multi-page documents to PDF or TIFF formats using the department copier/printer/scanners; single-page documents can also be scanned to JPEG-format images. The copier/scanner will e-mail the resulting scan to you.

Press Scanner (left-side of copier control pad)
Enter your copier/scanner access code; press # when done.
Press Attach Sender's Name (upper-right of touch-pad) to select a From address for your document scan.
You must choose a from-address to be able to scan.
Use the alphabetic sort letters to find your username. Usernames are programmed to match login names.
Press OK when done.
Select the To: field to select who to send the document scan to.
Use the alphabetic sort letters to find your username for users programmed on the system; select Manually Input if the user is not listed. Usernames are programmed to match login names.
Press OK when done.
You can choose cc: and bcc: fields the same way, if you like. These are not required.
Verify Scan Type (middle-right of touch-pad). The default is PDF, but TIFF and/or JPEG are also available. Press OK to exit this submenu.
Newer copiers can generate full-color scans (Ricoh MP8001, MP4001, MP5001 models); you can select color scan modes under Scan Type.
Check whether you have 1-sided or 2-sided originals (lower-left side of touch-pad). Change using the Original Settings submenu. Be sure to press OK when you are finished.
We recommend you select Attach Subject to put a subject line on your scan message. Otherwise, you might not remember what each individual document is.
Select Manual Input
Enter your subject line, then press OK
Multi-page documents can be loaded into the document feeder, face-up. Single-page documents can be loaded through the document feeder or on the glass scanning surface under the document feeder.
If you want to change the scan resolution (300dpi by default), go into Scan Settings (far left side of touch-pad) to change it. Again, press Ok to get out of this submenu.
At this time, the green Start button should be illuminated green. Press the button to start your scan.
If you have more documents to scan, repeat as needed.
You will be automaticly logged out after 60 seconds of inactivity.
