FWIW I have updated my web page Scan into Word, mentioned earlier in this old thread, to include scanning into Word 2013. Alternative coding is included for Excel and Outlook.

2016-10-06T08:12:23+00:00 Unfortunately everything that has been suggested in this original thread here since page one is suggesting that there is no way to scan a document directly from Microsoft Word 2013...
Quite the contrary!
Since 2013 you can find suggestions for easy and comfortable solutions to the missing scanning fuctionality in Word 2013. You don't have to "download any software", let alone buy Photoshop, either. Just a simple macro will do the job perfecly.
I have been scanning directly into Word 2013 (and 2016) for years now with nothing else than some vba code provided in this thread.
So just read the thread carefully and try again, Johnny!
