So there is no need for any kind of interim format. The NeatReceipts scanner scans everything to PDF on the Mac. Documents and receipts that you scan are neatly filed away in collections (which are in Libraries). The bundled software is designed to be your electronic filing cabinet. Had I never used the Fujitsu ScanSnap I wouldn’t have given the speed a second thought. Although slower than I imagined, it is still very acceptable. The NeatReceipts scanner only scans one side at a time and takes several seconds to scan an 8.5″x11″ page. I was spoiled rotten by the Fujitsu scanner which is the fastest scanner I’ve ever owned. NeatReceipts for Mac won’t win any races for speed. I then ran the simple calibration procedure and I was ready to scan. Of course there was a newer version available online and I downloaded that version and installed it. When my NeatReceipts scanner arrived I unboxed it and installed the software from the CD.
