  This is useful, especially considering that the usual software used to make PDFs costs several hundred dollars!

  Scan2PDF, makes PDFs directly from your scanner or from saved image files.

  Great for making PDFs of all that old Watchtower literature one has lying about the house.

  And the best thing is, this software is FREE!
