You need Adobe Acrobat - the full version - and then you can scan them directly to .pdf ; or at least that's the way I did the F310 Owner's Manual...

If you don't have Adobe PDF and you don't want to buy it...uh, yeah...you can find some PDF programs that are shareware on CNET.com.

Most scanning programs should have an option to scan in a document in PDF format, i use a canon scanner, and have to change the settings to accomodate a multiple page document. But this is not much help if you've already scanned the document into single files. As above, use Acrobat or try ActivePDF (free online).

Are you doing both manuals with the motor included, or just the vehicle and drivetrain?

I've got about 700 MBs available and 70 GBs of bandwidth per month available if anyones interested in putting something on my site.
I don't mind at all.
