This post is part of the paperless stories feature at DocumentSnap. Some stories are from readers that have successfully gone paperless, some are still going through it. Would you like to share your story too? Today’s featured DocumentSnap reader is Sophie Perreault from Quebec, Canada. What problems were you trying to solve by going paperless? […]
Continue readingI have a theory, based on no data whatsoever, that Fujitsu is going to sell a lot of ScanSnap S1100 scanners to people who already have another ScanSnap. Your average home or small business user will most likely not need multiple scanners, but I could see people who travel a lot, visit client sites, or […]
Continue readingHappy New Year everyone! I hope you had a great one and are ready and roaring to go for 2011. As part of my annual review, I was looking back at my logs for sales through Amazon.com, and I thought you might be interested in the top 10 products that DocumentSnap readers bought through Amazon […]
Continue readingSometimes rather than creating new PDF files every time, you want to scan to an existing document. Over on the ScanSnap Community, they’ve posted a helpful video showing how to use Adobe Acrobat (which comes with the ScanSnap S1500) to scan to Acrobat and then add the pages to an existing document.

Like for example, it would be nice to have a bird hand-painted on it. Well, it’s my lucky day. PFU, which is the division of Fujitsu in Japan that […]
Continue readingSo I know that I posted about Evernote just a few days ago, but I couldn’t possibly let this go by without letting you guys know about it. Evernote and Fujitsu cut a deal where if you buy a ScanSnap S1500 (for Windows) or S1500M (for Mac) and then sign up for an Evernote […]
Continue readingMost of you know that I typically use Macs more than Windows, but in the process of doing some consulting work (more on that later), I have been spending more time using the Windows programs that come with the Fujitsu ScanSnap. For starters, I want to say that I really like ScanSnap Organizer. I wish […]
Continue readingSometimes, when you have to scan a large number of documents at once, the step of doing OCR (making the PDF searchable) after each document can really slow things down.
