It's cross-platform, cross-programming languages, cross-scanners :-).

Libinsane cannot prevent them. +* Full bed page scan only: Presence of the option to set the scan area cannot be guaranteed. You may have to crop the image later in your own application (see Paperwork for example). +* 24 bits color scans only (may be fixed later) + +It is the successor of Pyinsane2 but shares no code with it. + </longdescription> +</pkgmetadata> |
