Off topic - but you might want to consider getting an upgrade before November when we run out of available IPv4 addresses. I have some old programs such as Photoshop Explorer that I know won't run in Windows 7, so I've been dragging my feet. Other than that - absolutely perfect!
Well, perfect would be if there was a dropdown choice of available notebooks or tags, but that as well is luxury ENScript supports exporting notebooks, so this is something that can be added unfortunately, this is not the same for tags — ENScript doesn't support exporting them. For everybody who is running XP, maybe Irfanview can be an alternative.
I wrote the following batch file which scans the document and opens the image automatically with Irfanview. There you can rotate, crop or manipulate your image otherwise, before you import it in your Evernote account.
Shortcuts to rotate your image left and right are "l" and "r". I don't know if this is really necessary, but if you have problems should select the first option "Single image PPS: I chose x dpi as a scan resolution, which is enough for my purposes. If you want to change this you have to adjust the values in the batch file. There's just one improvement which I would love to have: When I scan using the automatic document feeder only the last single page is imported into evernote.
I have a Fujitsu ScanSnap S - the program doesn't detect the scanner, so I am presuming that the type is wrong? However, I have a scan to EN option in my menus for the S, so not a problem. This program would be a great addition if I needed and could use it! I just tracked this utility down via search after failing miserably other methods to achieve "scan to Evernote".
Only thing necessary was to change the path to ENsript, and to start as Admin. I copied a shortcut to my desktop and I'm ready to go. I actually saved the program in it's own folder under Documents, so it's sure to go with me if I change computers.
I changed my default notebook to "INBOX" a while back so that I'm reminded to check there for things to file properly. That makes it an okay place for scans to land. Get started for free.

Creating the image to be saved including converting to the desired file format - typically jpg or pdf. Then importing into Evernote.
The image creation piece is what takes the time and depends on the scanner being used. Importing into Evernote is quite quick. My scanner saves directly into Evernote. Perhaps 30s to scan and convert a page I haven't timed it and almost instant saving into Evernote.
If the scanner scans to an import folder then the imprting takes a few seconds for the image to recognised by the Import Folder process but then it is also immediate. You may be aware that Filterize is closing down in 12 months, and various interested users on here including me are looking for a replacement service. There are separate threads on this in the Forums here. On scanners, I'd broadly say that I run a fairly paperless workflow, of which scanning is such an integral part that I don't consider the activity a separate time-sink.
My attitude is to scan and save documents unless there is a very good reason not to. In my case, unless an item is too big or too valuable to feed to the scanner, I mainly use an old ScanSnap S - the modern equivalent is the ix - a sheet fed scanner which operates at 30ppm.
I'm office based, so it scans to a hard drive folder where I can batch OCR the files I find it quicker than OCR on a pre-scan basis and edit files and file names where necessary.
If I'm processing user guides or other printed material I'll try to find a version online rather than re-scan something locally. If the item is too big etc to scan I'll use my tablet or phone Evernote app to take pictures. The ScanSnap will operate without a connected PC, but you're then subject to the time it takes to save possibly large files to the server. Thanks for all your answers. Sucks for filterize, didn't know. Really hope Evernote incorporates some of the features as part of its premium plan.
So one document will feed at 30 ppm, but what if you have 10 documents instead? I have the exact same device and was unaware of the Evernote watch folder feature.
I especially like how Evernote can delete the content from the watch folder after import. Thanks for taking the time to share! Does the Canon software have an option to ignore blank pages? Thanks for the fine article. I did have my cheaper Canon and EverNote set up to do this already. But I really appreciate the secondary folder idea and the tip on auto delete.
That makes the process even better. I think it assumes the user is running Windows and prints frequently so that the Pixma is a good solution. If you do not print frequently, inkjet printers get jammed with dried ink in the cartridge, which is why I, a former pixma owner, switched to laser for printing. Second, only Evernote for Windows has the directory scanning function. They did not implement it , at least not yet, in the Mac version.
To solve this, you can create a service written in applescript to detect and import files into Evernote, or use a Snansnap i have the Si portable one which comes with scan to Evernote features. Thank you for sharing your solution. A few years ago, all of my paper files were destroyed during a move, and I decided then to scan everything into the cloud to keep that from happening again. Fire and water damage can render your paper documents useless, but your cloud file cabinet evernote will still be there.
