Dear all, I just got some results from film scans with the new Canoscan 9000F. GIMP cannot open the file, complaining about unsupported maximum value (65535 below), indicating I think multibyte image. The header looks as follows:
P6 # XSane settings: # resolution_x = 300.0 # resolution_y = 300.0 # gamma IRGB = 1.09 1.00 1.00 1.00 # brightness IRGB = 0.8 0.0 0.0 0.0 # contrast IRGB = 0.8 0.0 0.0 0.0 # color-management= 0 # cms-function = 0 # cms-intent = 0 # cms-bpc = 0 # icm-profile = z^? # XSANE data follows 01746 00901 65535 ...<data>... I wonder if there is some setting that need to be made in the front end... if so I should let the user know. I can think of "reduce 16 bit image to 8 bit" in the Xsane options, but this is usually off by default. Other than that, I do not see any options I can discover.
