Hi all, I'm currently trying to improve the sane "glue layer" from PIL (Python Imaging Library). One of things missing there is support for other sample depths than 8. While it's obvious how to implement support for line art, I'm become more and more puzzled, if support for other sample depths than 1, 8 and 16 is required. We had a discussion about this some time ago, but I must admit that I'm too lazy to scan through the mail archive in order to get answers to my question...
Could somebody give me a clue about the possible sample depths? Abel PS: Next question, if a program/library calling the Sane API must support other pixel depths than 1/8/16: How is the data aligned within a word / byte? E.g., for sample depth 3, will the possible values be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 0, 32, 64, 96, 128, 160, 192, 224 ?
