I believe you will need Adobe Acrobat in order to do that.

try simple ocr. it's not the best one but the cheapest one for you to start.

If the file is that large it probably contains images of some sort.  I would suggest minimizing the image size prior to converting it to a pdf.  Also if you have scanned it, it's been converted to one huge picture.  I would suggest importing into word or powerpoint, embedding everything and then converting it to a pdf.

what you might want to try doing is completely unisnstall the program and then with the software disk, load it according to owner's manual or on screen prompts.  i had to do that with mine beccause scanner wasn't working. it worked well.

If you have a printer that has a scanner on it, take what u need to scan, scan it on the printer, and you should see a screen that automatically comes up with what u have scanned. Review ur options, edit and save the document. (don't 4get where u saved it). Open up MS word, look for the open foler button on the toolbar, click the button and look in the drop down menu for your hardware options (whether u saved it in my documents, local C drive, 3 1/2 floppy, etc.). Find it and open it, the document that u scanned should now appear in the MS word document, and from there u can edit the document and save as u wish. I hope this helps. If u need anymore help hit me back!

As far as I know it's not possible. You'll have to use Word or a similar program like in OpenOffice.org

You can't. You either need to bootleg it from a friend or maybe try openoffice, they have a powerpoint like application in that suite. It's not so bad.

once you scan it it will ask where do you want it to go.  Pick MS Word.  Save it, then send it out

open word. it should give you the option when you load it up.\n\nof open the file in word(not sure about that but worth a try)

Unzip it with  winzip or stuff expander, then see what type of files are inside it. If they're .htm or .html files, you can edit those in notepad, wordpad, textedit, word, etc.\n\nPSD files you'll need photoshop to edit them.

try pasting to another document program such as Notepad and Wordpad to see if that works.   It it does then you will need to check the options in MS Word.\nE

You need a PDF converter. Most install as pseudo printers and will work with any application that has a 'print' feature.\n\nA good FREE one is PrimoPDF - you can download it from snapfiles.com. Once installed, open your document, select 'print', and select PrimoPDF from the printers list. It will prompt you the rest of the way.

All you have to do is transfer it onto a word page, and save in in files as a web-page. You should have used word in the first place.
