will it extract photos from pdf files?

It won't "extract" photos from PDF's, but you can open a PDF in PaintShop Pro, and then crop it to just the photo, then save as jpg file. Key is opening the pdf correctly. By default, they open at a small DPI setting, like 72. Make it at least 200. Then down below uncheck anti aliasing and transparency, that will make for a smaller file size. But understand, if it's a small photo on the pdf page, it will still be a small photo in PaintShop. Good luck.

Yes, it can scan to a USB storage device. It produces a folder titled "Brother" on the device and creates PDFs. PDFs are searchable depending on which version of Acrobat or other software you have.

Unfortunately not. It only displays your hand writing and saves it as a PDF image.

Yes. Jpegs for photos and pdfs for documents. Once you tell the scanner you're scanning photos, it auto"magically" knows you want jpegs.

yes.... you and use a USB thumb drive and it will scan images to the drive for later use on your PC. Each page is saved as a jpg image which can be converted on your PC if necessary.

Chromebook OS supports PDF files but does not accept Adobe Reader. Chromebooks require a Wifi connection and Google docs and Slides are very effective subs for Word and PPoint

I have used mine primarily to scan slides into my photo editing program on my computer so unable to answer that question.

Yes it does. I run it in compatibility mode but that may not be necessary. Several minor functions don't work like convert to pdf but for the most part it runs fine. I've run under Windows 7 since that OS came out.

Yes, and it will also save images as .TIFF, .BMP, or .PDF files. This is a great scanner and I feel that Canon software is simply the best!

I scanned hundreds of school work documents on my iMac G5 PowerPC - OSX Leopard in 2009 and I believe I used some online service to convert everything from image to pdf. Because I wanted my school documents specifically stored as PDF; but I guess I should have kept jpg for the google automatic photo backup.

Yup it does, but mainly for epub formats :)If your text in a pdf happens to be stored as an image, it doesn't work with the dictionary lookup.

Need to scan into Adobe Photoshop CS5 / Windows 7 / 64 Bit -- wondering if you are using it for that and if it worked.

iPhone users can download free apps "camscanner" and shoot documents using that apps. You can make good PDF file of your choice.

I assume so since you save your scanned images/documents etc... to an SD card, you should be able to transfer the images to your computer from the card.

ive only used it briefly,only for documents and based on that I don't think it would be good for pictures. I do need to try photos

Not on this model. They do manufacturer a more expensive one which does create pdf files to save.

Nope, the file needs to be indexed during your initial scan or use other software to index your pdfs
