I used to use xsane almost exclusively for scanning to PDF, but it
only does single pages. Now I mostly use either simple-scan or naps2.
I find that simple-scan seems to work better for black-and-white scans
with pencilled annotations, while naps2 is a very flexible utility that
allows pages to be rotated, or re-arranged by dragging and dropping.
When it comes to selecting individual pages or combining multiple
PDF files, I use pdftk. The syntax is a little odd, but now that
I've learned it I find it can do whatever I want.
