An approach for processing scanned document data includes a document merging network service receiving a request for existing electronic document data. In response, the document merging network service identifies and providing, to a scanning device, identification data that identifies existing electronic document data. The existing electronic document data may be stored by a third party storage service. In response to user selection of an existing electronic document identified in the identification data, the scanning device transmits, to the document merging network service, scanned document data, data that identifies an existing electronic document, and location insertion data. The document merging network service merges the scanned document data at one or more locations in the existing electronic document based on the location insertion data.

1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions for processing scanned document data, where the instructions, when processed by one or more processors, cause: receiving, by a document merging network service executing on a network device, from a first scanning device over a network using an IP protocol, (a) first scanned document data that represents at least a portion of one or more first printed documents that have been scanned by the first scanning device, (b) first existing document indication data that indicates first document data, and (c) location insertion data that indicates a location within the first document data in which second document data is to be inserted;in response to receiving the first scanned document data and the first existing document indication data, the document merging network service: retrieving the first document data, andmerging the second document data with the first document data by inserting the second document data into the first document data at the location;wherein the second document data is either the first scanned document data or document data that is generated from the first scanned document data;receiving, by the document merging network service executing on the network device, from a second scanning device, that is different than the first scanning device, over the network using the IP protocol, (d) second scanned document data that represents at least a portion of one or more second printed documents that have been scanned by the second scanning device and (e) second existing document indication data that indicates third document data;in response to receiving the second scanned document data and the second existing document indication data, the document merging network service: retrieving the third document data, andmerging fourth document data with the third document data;wherein the fourth document data is either the second scanned document data or document data that is generated from the second scanned document data. 2. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 1, wherein retrieving the first document data comprises retrieving the first document data from storage that is located on the network device or on a second network device that is in the same local network as the network device. 3. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 1, wherein retrieving the first document data comprises the document merging network service: requesting, using the IP protocol, the first document data from a third party storage service; andreceiving the first document data from the third party storage service. 4. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 1, wherein the location insertion data indicates a particular character in the first document data. 5. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 1, wherein: a file format of the first scanned document data is different than a file format of the first document data;the instructions, when processed by the one or more processors, further cause generating the second document data from the first scanned document data;a file format of the second document data is the same as a file format of the first document data. 6. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 1, wherein merging second document data with the first document data includes replacing less than all of the first document data with at least a portion of the second document data. 7. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 1, wherein the location insertion data indicates at least one of: the beginning of the first document data;the end of the first document data; ora page number of the first document data. 8. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions which, when processed by one or more processors, cause: a document merging network service executing on a network device receiving, from a scanning device over a network using an IP protocol, (a) scanned document data that represents at least a portion of one or more printed documents that have been scanned by the scanning device and (b) existing document indication data that indicates first document data;in response to receiving the scanned document data and the existing document indication data, the document merging network service: retrieving the first document data, andmerging second document data with the first document data;wherein the second document data is either the scanned document data or document data that is generated from the scanned document datain response to receiving the existing document indication data and prior to merging, the first document data is generated from third document data;wherein a file format of the second document data is the same as a file format of the first document data. 9. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 8, wherein a second network service that is different than the document merging network service generates the first document data from the third document data. 10. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 8, wherein retrieving the first document data comprises retrieving the first document data from storage that is located on the network device or on a second network device that is in the same local network as the network device. 11. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 8, wherein retrieving the first document data comprises the document merging network service: requesting, using the IP protocol, the first document data from a third party storage service; andreceiving the first document data from the third party storage service. 12. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 8, wherein: a file format of the scanned document data is different than the file format of the first document data;the instructions, when processed by the one or more processors, further cause generating the second document data from the scanned document data;the file format of the second document data is the same as the file format of the first document data. 13. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 8, wherein merging second document data with the first document data includes replacing less than all of the first document data with at least a portion of the second document data. 14. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 8, wherein the instructions, when processed by the one or more processors, further cause: the document merging network service also receiving, from the scanning device over the network, location insertion data;wherein the location insertion data indicates a location within the first document data in which the second document data is to be inserted;the document merging network service inserting the second document data into the first document data at the location. 15. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as recited in claim 14, wherein the location insertion data indicates at least one of: the beginning of the first document data;the end of the first document data; ora page number of the first document data. 16. A scanning device comprising: one or more processors;wherein the scanning device is configured to generate scanned document data based on one or more printed documents; andone or more user interface controls;wherein the one or more user interface controls are configured to allow: (a) a user to specify particular document data that is different than the scanned document data, and(b) the user to specify that the scanned document data is to be merged with the particular document data,(c) the user to specify a plurality of locations within the particular document data in which one or more portions of the scanned document data are to be inserted, wherein at least one of the plurality of locations is neither the beginning nor the end of the particular document data;wherein the scanning device is configured to send, using an IP protocol, to a document merging network service executing on a network device, the scanned document data, data that identifies the particular document data, and location data that indicates the plurality of locations in the particular document data where one or more portions of the scanned document data are to be merged with the particular document data. 17.
