Please don't scan them at such a low resolution!
300dpi works pretty good.
I'd really recommend going out and buying Adobe Acrobat itself. I bought V5
and am very happy with it.
100dpi seems to be the best resolution that I've seen for a tradeoff between
readability and file size.
For an example of what can be done with Adobe Acrobat
and an old 300dpi
scanner you might want to check the following:

Looking now.
Rememeber at 100dpi you're going to be scanning at
such a low resolution
that any prints will be basically worthless.
This is text and line drawings... for finer stuff, I'll use a higher resolution,
of course.
