A: Try using the Microsoft Tagged Image Format File (extensions either .tiff or Mtiff). if you scan to adobe .pdf it won't work. or try saving as a .jpg and you can use Microsoft Powerpoint, but if you don't have any of these then I am pretty sure paint can do it. Or use adobe photoshop. but the biggest thing is the format in which you save the file use .jpg
