I will take a look at those speed issues later." ( http://www.scanners-on-linux.com/node/36 ) Personally I can recommend the Epson Perfection 4490 with the optional ADF, that works perfectly for me. - -- - Kristian Fiskerstrand http://www.kfwebs.net - http://www.secure-my-email.com http://www.secure-my-internet.com -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6-svn4282 (GNU/Linux) iQIVAwUBRVWsEhbgz41rC5UIAQhRjA/7BUg7+mOycUe9z50dSGe+ZGrxDdoff67o GmCz7xbkKbBR3/vajiuHFWgerHRCfsPjKBTNHDI+jggCWhXqA0qw6qbOGTZEAhcd rppbqM2fz6zGIujC4iqZ8akb/Tdid7VeUGZ4RdmJsEoFQnqE1WOTFazAcbT+k5Zr 5UiyQY2lQz3DxEg0SIIi+LUSYb5ydFzoS2w/SNtGYpYVCsoIhQUgYF14en4cSjKC IpJKmYuGkDtVmiQSx3/CDPs59iRDCW5d+AU/N40f0chfrHCva1zy3WcvA0O7SK6j S0qu8Uk2a7Kc0DaYF6oEbOSqjhz4wK+sQgtgxkbQnHa7tir5KCUd4KMurcChFlMB PSLUnOz4ABzDOC50LJ7W7jf8aVj+YnkUhC3Bfvj1OJQqrBAWyL0r0n6XgvTMvnIP w+eEZtXXJ42Hj+FvG6NbrqAa9M0R8KoLEFOWf1H9tNJwIMFQfUmG07ovR3kMM3af zRMiJtNGtrHolZXRBqSqzSofxNiYzKa/1LyF+7iiNdiOPjnCTjOiNLgJbXn++Y3m CC2dsZrBzqrsval6u9m8LtbUzSGuSRpQnNxBCF9R4wB4x+ZSnZyYHulArH/PzBzU VIRiqmE/fWmpDnbClWyNcKMWgGCMukkRtMVxyQLBu8lXTItR042bETUAtQCm+UJX 8IFQYN8+EBw= =Z74s -END PGP SIGNATURE-

[sane-devel] Merging multiple images into PDF
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 Greetings list, I recently purchased an Epson Perfection 4490 Office W/Document Feeder (ADF) and it is working very nicely using iscan ( http://www.avasys.jp/english/linux_e/dl_scan.html ) . The reason for getting this scanner in the first place was a discussion on this list where it was recommended, so thank you. Now, I only have one question with regards to it, and that is merging multiple images into a single PDF file. When scanning I get files in the format somename-.jpg , .pnm or .png depending on the format I specify. and I would very much like to merge them into a single file to send out. I've tried to get this to work using a couple of different approaches. Using ImageMagick's convert was one of them, both into PDF directly and into PostScript and convert it to PDF using ps2pdf afterwards, but both of these approaches were un-successful in the terms of acceptable output. I tried adjusting -density and -page but I still don't get acceptable output from my 300dpi scans. In addition I tried a perl script called jpg2pdf, which is supposed to generate "albums" from multiple images, but that as well was unsuccessful. After that I considered creating my own online PDF-service using FPDF ( http://www.fpdf.org/ ), but the initial testing shows that the cropping gets all wrong. That said this is the approach that has gotten me the furthest as of yet and that I'm most likely to persue unless someone has a good suggestion for me. The downside is of course the transfer of > 1MB image files and downloading the resulting PDF file again. Yours sincerely, - -- - ---- Kristian Fiskerstrand http://www.kfwebs.net - http://www.scanners-on-linux.com http://www.secure-my-email.com http://www.secure-my-internet.com -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6-svn4282 (GNU/Linux) iQIVAwUBRTeZMBbgz41rC5UIAQgDMw//U9RzhuQwHJ7YwKL5wA5/6OHCvcK1XTmZ iuAjtYcNW5g7rKUZKpAlkxT9TmhEhSTTFWVpJ8e7MIq5CnmJG07FLUu1CVMRrWDa nHzfgw3EqvhUZEzH24Ws2wfOWj1dc+3OAsKnDUC9sl73A+cgvWPQUAD8Ed69qlPw 6HkyNcy5ey7HfPyLK1CWQstSq7V7d8HZcF+7iIFExLOF89NN68bcX2/Yuvc0tCz5 hV5EbjAocX0jbMf9n7zXWla8+acEKlTnxbNZotixiRwAVaGUueXa+075S2+8h7cM iFuLD2XFlCWk7dIPkNuS4yIuY1+tUobLuDJaN+SKbiYYDE/9/aPKZU2Y9NSC4vpU T8NJyAohEiizj+rQRFWD64NYf4tr5p/qItzACXR1fiqNoZAmJ+e/80J9QvTDRLPq vTitz9N5tgiyC19+XkN8CiXVkqf4F1dnt9nAxW6BfrMYwF5HTLvnImiQeqelh77q 4246U4UBFW9DFhntR6GY3YIKrIQbX///JvCkaMIEnwgf1Nugb7m12q2LRcillz4T aemnxWY1WteiNS5lsCU16JbVDRzHM4IzYWSeHYQwc8b6VGRIEC0fVzhPbS1vNgam eCfUqVCpq5vLisYeCRYpnDTtF9bBCMPeUvhiE09dif93yS9CO770kfqJJ3WNW5W7 D/QhrtiqmrU= =zjBG -END PGP SIGNATURE-
