compress them into a zip folder and email the zipped folder to them

Actually - if they dont need a .pdf but will take a word document, just save the word document with all of the images in it and send them THAT. Won't be as professional looking, and a lot of businesses block .doc documents in email due to safety concerns..

Most Office products suck at doing multi-page PDF documents.

Here's an idea - Scan each page, one at a time, as an image - a .jpg for example, so you end up with page1.jpg, page2.jpg, page3.jpg, etc.

In Word, start a new blank document (or editor of your choice that supports images), then position each image, one after another, resizing it so that you get one image per page. If you are using OpenOffice or a later version of MSOffice, you can then click on file|save as and choose .pdf as the file type - this will convert the entire document into a single pdf file.

If your editor doesnt have the option to save as a .pdf, you can download and install a PDF Printer for free - there are many of them, here is one that will work fine with instructions: http://www.dopdf.com/ Basically, after you install it you will see a new printer listed. Combine the images as I said into a single document, hit print, and choose the new PDF printer. Instead of actually printing on paper, it takes the data, assembles it as a pdf, and saves it back to your computer ready to email.

I need a little computer assistance please. I have several pages of a document that I need to scan and then email to someone. I can't figure out how to get all the documents into one file. I have saved each one, but the business I am emailing them to will only accept one file. I scan then save, but that creates several files. Can anyone help me?
