I think it does. I have not used it much on Jpg. I have used it on pdf and even here it picks up some photos in pdf. I have been more interested in articles and text. interested in articles and text so at this time I cant verify

No. But it has been great with scanning photos. I love this scanner - it is quick, easy to use and fun!

It scans in color, but I wouldn't use it to scan photos. When I first received it, I tried scanning a business card, and it came all washed out. It scanned the card and left the rest of the image black. It didn't auto correct. One would have photo shop to get exactly the image they desire.

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, it scans front & back as the page passes through in 1 pass. 1 2 sided page will result in a 2, single page pdf.

No, it only scans pictures, and I guess any paper also. All of the jpegs that I've gotten off of my machine have been dark, so I tend to only scan the pictures that have lots of light in them. Others I use a Kodak that I love, but it has the issue of lines showing on the picture.

File are saved as JPG only, but, of course, you can easily convert JPG to PDF with Acrobat Pro or other programs. I was really surprised by the quality of picture with this little scanner. I use it basically for my research work in libraries, e.g., you're reading an article and find some data or graph that you would like to keep for future reference and it's very easily and fast to store that in your little device.

Yes, the scanner does scan to either JPG or PDF output. When you power on the scan button, the screen displays the default output type as JPG. To change it to PDF output type press the JPG PDF button and the screen display will change to PDF.

Not always. I have a macbook pro and one of the main reasons I got this printer is to use the full duplex scanning feature since I keep most of my documents in electronic format. I used to use the pdfscanner app with an epson printer. I love the pdfscanner app. It does not seem to work with this printer. I then started using the included HP software to use the scanner. I works for me about 40% of the time. Basically, I have to power cycle the printer a few times. Then if that doesn't work, I power cycle my laptop and eventually the HP software might be able to connect so that I can scan something! I've had no issue printing. I've had lots of issues scanning. I'm planning to return this printer for this very reason.

No it doesn't scan slides. It now scans photos but with a faint line across them. This was named as a problem others have also had.

You'll need to pull them into some kind of software. I've only used it to scan pictures. Then I load the images (jpgs) onto my computer and open them in Photoshop for editing. If you're scanning documents as pdfs you'll need pdf software, like Adobe Reader, to open and print them. I've never used it to scan as pdf, though.

Yes, there is a flatbed scanner and it works beautifully. You can scan it to a .tif file or other formats, but you have to have the HP software dialog box open. On the minus side, the scanner is set to scan at "millions of colors" and can't be readjusted except manually, with each thing you scan. You have to click through a lot of dialogue boxes. Another reviewer mentioned scanning to .pdf, but I haven't been able to find that feature despite several hours trying. I use a separate app, ScantoPDF, but with about 7 clicks per page necessary to make a scan, I wouldn't call the process here blazingly fast.

This unit scans to your own USB/storage device that you can put into your Apple or your PC. The files appear as jpgs. I use it on both Apple and PC.

Yes, I saw your question and decided to try it. You are able to scan to the USB, it allows you to save in PDF, JPG or TIF (and possible other) formats.

It scans documents, so yes, it will store them as well. You can tell the software what folder to scan to, whether it's pdf, image scans or other scan types. You can then edit your scan from that folder, and move it to where you want it be stored.

It scans documents into PDF files. You can organize the documents into file folders. Very easy to do.

No. This wand provides scanned documents in either a jpg or pdf document type. If you scan the text to a pdf document you can use a program like Nuance PDF Advanced to OCR the text.
