You're right, the default parameters are NOT expected to always work out-of-the-box. It depends on the input image whether they make sence or not. All of my own tests have been made on grayscale paper scans with "good" contrast, directly originating from scanadf, size 1648 x 2337 pixels. Could it be that your scans are too bright, so that the automatic border-scan treats all pixels as non-black pixels? What happens if you use different values for --black-threshold or --white-threshold? What if you set a --border-scan-threshold even lower than the default of 5? Are you specifying the --layout parameter, setting it either to 'single' or 'double'? (Most of the automatic processing makes sence with a specified --layout only.) Please anybody let me know which default values would make more sence for unpaper. Jens
