Thanks. I'm also using KDE. gscan2pfd is just a nice scanning application. Some month ago I tried to install and configure scandb for my old scanner, but I didn't accomplish the mission. In most cases it would be totally fine for me to start the scanning programm (skanlite, gscan2pdf, xsane,...), configure it (b/w or colour, resolution, file name...) and then scan several pages by using the scanner's button. I don't need the power of scandb. I'm just questioning whether xsane (or gscan2pdf, or skanlite) can react on a pressed buttons or not. To put it in a nutshell: Is it a problem before or behind the keyboard? Greetings Dominik
