scanned pdf on pages

Hi

Hope everyone is doing well.


I need a little help with pages.


I am creating an index which requires scanned pdfs to be linked to each item.

I used insert--> import from iPhone ---> scan documents through camera ---> save


I successfully scanned around 7 pages.

However, after the scan has been inserted to the document, I have no idea as to how I can view the pdf pages within.


I double clicked on it and nothing opened.

Have tried to see the properties, the other pages don't show.

I enlarged the image (thinking the other pages could need more space).

I also clicked on image in the format part of the app.


How do I access the scan directly through my document so that I have all pdfs under each topic name?


Any help would be useful.

Thanks in advance.

Pages supports a single PDF page as a document object. You can scale and rotate it, but any additional pages beyond the first shown page are no longer available to you. Scan and insert one page at a time. You will likely find any attempt to link one PDF document object to another frustrating.
