I just recently picked up a scanner w/ADF, with the intention of
scanning a couple years worth of documents (bills, mostly). Many of the
bills are multiple pages, and some are two sided.
I can scan the documents into individual TIF pages easy enough and I can
even sort out the two-sided stuff and intersperse the pages (I'll do it
in two batches, front and back, then rename the entire fronts to
filenameA and the backs to filenameB)
However, there is still a huge task ahead of me, combining the pages
into manageable documents (and naming them, although I'm fully aware I
have a ton of typing)
With all that in mind, I'm looking for a program that will quickly and
easily let me combine multiple pages into single documents, preferably
in TIF format.
Ideally I'd like something that would display two images on the screen,
and ask me if they're the same document. If I say yes, then I'll be
shown the next page, and so on, until I say no. Then it will combine
the documents and move on.
I don't need the software to handle the actual scanning, although it
wouldn't hurt if I could find an all in one package as long as it can
scan the entire contents of the ADF in one go, I don't want to have to
wait for another page to be scanned before I can decide if it's the same
document or not.
I spent a good couple of hours looking at scanner software on Google
without success so far, so I'm hoping somebody knows of software that
can help me out.
