Scanning documents has been creating a few problems lately. Seems that most folks are scanning everything at the highest resolution. Thus, a simple 5 page document can be 5MB+ and too large for many e-mail programs. Plus, sending such huge documents will quickly fill someones email box quota.
An option is to just fax the documents to yourself. If you don't need print quality documents then this works great.
Simply compile all the documents needed and run them through any standard fax machine. The faxing process automatically reduces the resolution, typically under 100KB per page. When it arrives in your in-box, simply rename the document and file it in an appropriate folder on your local drive.
If you need to fax something to a person without a fax machine then you can simply fax the document to yourself, then forward the e-mail on to them.
