I want it to scan all pages in the document, and it sometimes does that, but other times it does not. Does anyone have any fixes?

You can do that with Acrobat's OCR tool. In the tool search bar, just search for OCR, and you should be able to do this for the whole document.

Let's take a step or two backwards: What are you trying to accomplish? What exacty do you mean by "scanned"? Usually a scanner is not involved when using the edit tool, so the more information you can provde, the easier it is to help.
