## 1. Scan answer sheets and convert
1. After the exam, scan the answer sheets and have them sent to you via eMail as a PDF file.
**Hint:** You can scan as many pages as the scanner will physically take. It will split the files into chunks automatically.
2. Then log into tango via ThinLink (or use a physical Linux client), go to [https://mail.ethz.ch](https://mail.ethz.ch) and download the files.
3. Move all PDF files into a separate folder that contains only the scanned files.
4. Right-click into the folder and select "Open in terminal"
5. In terminal, run the command `find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -iname '*.pdf' -exec pdftoppm -jpeg {} mc-scan \;`
6. Delete the original PDF files or move them out of the directory.
