My printer won't do duplex scan, and I need to scan a large amount of 2-sided text. So I'm going to create one document of the odd-numbered pages, and another of the even-numbered pages. I know I can manually combine them into the right order, but I'm hoping there is some automatic way to merge the documents - one of odd-numbered pages, and one of even-numbered pages - into one document in which the pages are in the correct numerical order.
Is there?

Hi,
I regret - no, there is no way to do this at this time.

If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Re: Merge odd and even pages
I'm a new user and love the product.
Try the following:
a) create a new folder. Scan all the left-hand pages one by one (any picture scan format will do -use TIF for example- do not convert into documents) and save them into the new folder giving them a sequential numbers plus a common letter; like so: 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, 5a
b) Create a second folder. Scan all the right-hand pages one by one and save them into the new folder giving them sequential numbers plus a common letter; like so: 1b, 2b, 3b, 4b, 5b
c) merge the files in two folders into a third one and check your work to make sure the pages are sequential and follow each other correctly. If they do not you will have to go back and rename the files (that is why you want to create a folder for left pages and a folder for right pages).
d) Highlight all the TIF files and right-click to print to the doPDF printer.
