I am working macOS 14.1 (23B74). I’ve a Canon MF656Cdw.
I discover if I scan from the doc feeder utilizing Preview, it can generally break up the scan into separate PDFs in a manner that is, properly, incorrect. The thumbnail tray will present, for instance, the primary three pages in a single PDF, however then all of the pages in a second PDF. It is complicated. The related settings are:
- Duplex
- PDF Format
- Mix right into a single doc
- OCR
In contrast, Picture Seize by no means has this downside. Nonetheless, Picture Seize requires that I do know the place I wish to put the file and what I wish to name it. My most well-liked workflow can be do scan the doc, then determine all that out sitting on the laptop with the PDF open. I additionally discover the UI for choosing the title prematurely extremely clunky. Plus I then have an additional operation to use the “Scale back Dimension” Quartz filter with each scan moderately than doing that as a part of the save course of.
I am completely open to this being an EBKAC. What am I doing fallacious, if something, and the way can I get Preview to truly mix all the pieces right into a single doc? Thanks!
edit: Including this closely redacted screenshot. This simply occurred. The doc is 14 pages. I watched all 7 pages be individually fed by way of the doc scanner. Nonetheless, I ended up with two paperwork, one in every of which contained the primary two pages (labeled A and B in my screenshot) and the opposite of which additionally included the third web page (labeled C). I attempted this scan twice simply now with similar outcomes.
