Thanks, Stacey. I was about to panic, I'm trying to apply for an SBIG grant, and a bunch of the docs they require have to be scanned and uploaded electronically. It saves me having to go looking for somewhere to do it, (pain in the ass), and saves tons of time and stress. I appreciate this a lot!

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

You're welcome ;-) all the best with your application!

[@sgill6208]

OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS DETAILED, SIMPLE AND SHORT VIDEO! I watched this so that I can convert my written work into pdf and submit my Midterm for my online classes. This video was really helpful! Especially the part about having multiple pages scanned in just ONE pdf file, which is exactly what my Prof wanted.

[@prairiepatriot22]

Teaching from home without access to materials or a copier/scanner. You saved me from a bigger headache! Awesome, clear instructions!

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Thank you! Really appreciate that! Stay safe!

[@janetbryson657]

This has been a huge problem for me as a math teacher. You would not believe the images I've received that students expect me to read and grade, not to mention needing to download multiple pages and the frequent need to clear my cache. You've created an easy to follow, clear "how-to" video to share with my students! Thank you !!!!!

[@tech_fati]

Thank you so much for sharing this tip I am(Tech Teachers) sending loads of gratitude all the way from Nigeria 🇳🇬 I enjoy all your videos ♥️ God bless you real good

[@ba8yface]

I rarely ever comment any videos on RUclips, but i had to comment your video to thank you big time for this tip!
❤️

[@evanexcel7148]

Hey man! I super excited to learn this quick tip! multiple pages into one doc is really helpful stuff. I struggled hard to append many of my medical bills and prescription for insurance. Real Easy One.

[@toddspires603]

[@tija2011]

[@buddyboy4x44]

Great video, and great Google functionality. It strikes me I should scan travel documents while traveling, those that have not already been scanned onto my Google Drive. I can now do that so easily. Thank you.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Glad it was helpful!

[@miltonthomaslowe]

description of crop function could have been elaborated a little more but this was a fine presentation

[@gitamadhu]

Thank you for this simple and practical solution. Found this easier and better than using Adobe PDF.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Glad it was helpful!

[@soakedinbleachh]

Thank you. Tremendous help for a non-tech dummy.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Glad it helped!

[@Panini_Edirisinhe]

Just watched twice, very carefully. Looks excellent. Very clear speech and introduction. I must see if it works!
If it does, I shall return and edit to say so.
Well if it doesn't work, I shall also say so, but I don't envisage that possibility!

[@kojomensah8036]

So did it work?😄

[@DUKEofWAIL]

I tried it and it looks great. What is your recommendation for the best TTS reader from my PDF files? I have low vision and want to hear several books this way. Thank you.

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

I have had great results with the Read aloud feature built into Google Books. it works with ebooks and pdf files. Hopefully that helps.

I appreciate it 🙏

[@FlippedClassroomTutorials]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mmesmer6447]

Great tip, fast and useful scans however they are not a true copy of the original. A true copy in pdf format is available while using the android camera app on my S10+. It is slower to capture and requires that one wait for the scan icon to appear while framing the document. On my phone it says that it will be stored in "documents" but then I often can't find it on the phone's file app. There is no option to name the file when saving.

[@julielabelle2783]

Simple, clear and helpful.
Thank you for sharing this.

Once you've taken the picture, navigate to Filter. There you can greyscale the document if the app did not auto detect this.
