The orientation of some pages change from portrait to landscape when I scan multiple pages with Epson Scan and save them as a PDF. What should I do?

  • This happens if ABBYY Fine Reader is installed and you selected Create searchable PDF in Epson Scan. (The Create searchable PDF option saves the PDF file in a format that allows you to search for text within the document.)

    Follow these steps to disable this setting:

    1. Start Epson Scan.
    2. Click the file folder icon next to the Scan button. The File Save Settings window appears.



    3. Under Image Format, select PDF for the Type setting.
    4. Click the Options button.
    5. Click the Text tab.
    6. Deselect Create searchable PDF.
    7. Click OK to save your changes.
