well, i have acrobat (Duh!) as these are all going to be images, you just import the pics one by one. easy peasy.
the "trick" is to scan the pages so they are the same size and big enough so the text is not blurry.

Find someone who has a Mac running OS X.
When you select "Print" you have to option of saving as a PDF.

On the PC you'll need something with a PDF export function (I think Photoshop has this).
yes, but that means making a pdf for every page!
yes, I know you can import pdf's INTO a pdf (eventually making one pdf for an issue), but what I'm saying is that this will take up more space.

i think it's better to scan to jpgs (pdf's like jpgs) and then load up the jpgs into one pdf.

of course, if it's earier to do it the other way, go for it! :-P
