I did it this way when I scaned a VAX manual:
- Scan each page to a TIFF, 300 dpi, monochrome with the Impressario
  Scanner tool that comes with IRIX.
- Use fax G4 compression on the TIFFs and copy all individual TIFFs in to
  a single multipage TIFF with tiffcp(1).
- Run the result through tiff2ps(1)
- and finaly generate a PDF with ps2pdf(1).
