    Short and sweet: After you scan document using Windows Fax/Scan. Print the document and select "Microsoft Print to PDF" as the printer. Next, select the save as location, enter the filename and save. The video does a thorough job of covering the entire process if you're new to using the Windows Fax/Scan application and the Microsoft Print to PDF functionality.
