Also, does anyone know of an app that can take the PDF

I'm pretty sure Acrobat can do this, but like most Adobe software, the price tag is
somewhat... eye-watering. "If you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford
it."
A few months ago I purchased a Fujitsu ScanSnap S510. Wonderful device!
I've used it to PDF all sorts of old docs I really didn't need to keep
on paper. It included the full Acrobat and a program to help organize
collections of PDFs. It can post-process OCR, too.
