How can I take a folder of images and turn them into a pdf document so that each image is it's own page? I've scanned in several pages from comic books and I wish to turn them into a single pdf file. Thanks!

There's a number of ways I can think of off the top of my head. The quickest one I can think of is to import the entire folder into iPhoto. From the "Organize" section of iPhoto, select the entire album, choose 'Print' and when your print dialog comes up choose "Save as pdf". I just tried it with a 10 pic film roll and it worked like a charm ... continuous, 10 page pdf.

If you drag them all onto Preview they will open as one big multi-page file. Go to Print->Save as PDF to save it.

When I do that, it opens all of the jpgs at once and lets me scroll thru them. But when actually going to print, it seems to only print the current file. What are you doing to make it combine all the pics into a single, printable file ??

Oh. Well I hadn't tried this; I just remembered that Preview tends to display multiple files opened at the same time as pages. If that doesn't work then I don't know... Try the iPhoto thing.
