    When I scan a document, I can only save as JPG TIFF. PDF isn't an available file type on the dropdown. How can I add it? I use Windows Fax & Scan. Need help...I'm having to save as tiff then convert every file to pdf every time.

How do I scan as PDF using a MFC 7840W and a laptop with Windows 8.1

The scanning software that came with your Brother MFC7840w is responsible for the selection of available output formats of scanned images. Windows isn't the culprit. You might try contacting Brother but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Need to scan multiple documents as a pdf and email file but when i scan file the fileis to big to email

Have you tried compressing the file into a zip format. If you are using Windows this can be done using right click or download zip genuis and use that. Once compressed the file should be small enough to email.

The manual that comes with my brother MFC-7840W covers all functions ACCEPT scanning! How do I scan multiple pages into ONE file so I can send a single file to someone. Thank you, Jeff Vanskike

Information on the scanning function can be found here:

http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/as/au/en/faq/faq_list.html?reg=as&c=au&lang=en&prod=mfc7840w_all&Cat=107


In order to scan a multi-page document into a single file, you must configure the scan to use a file type that supports multi-page documents. For illustrated instructions of how to scan multiple pages into one file instead of each scan being saved as a separate file go to here:

Scanning to PDF format.

I know that the Brother MFC-7840W came with a program called PaperPort, which will allow you to scan 1 or more documents into a PDF file. Perhaps your scanner supplied the same program.

Brother MFC-465CN How can we scan multiple documents?

Hello,

Make a stack of the documents you want to scan and load them in the automatic feeder: The page to scan facing upward, and the top of the page inside. Press the Scan button and start (color or black).
If you choose the pdf format, you will have them in a single file.

Hopr it helps.
