Hi, all.
I tried to mail Milon my latest patch I came up with for the Apple
backend, but my message bounced.
If you are listening (or still about), Milon, what's your most recent
e-mail address? I need to submit a patch to you.
The patch I wrote is against SANE 1.0.2 and addresses two problems:
1. The ever-frustrating quantization bug has finally been eradicated (at
least for monochrome. Haven't even TRIED to touch color support in
any way shape or form).
2. For my Color OneScanner, while Gray256 works, Lineart and Gray16 also
worked--kinda. The latter two modes would scan with the tone values
reversed, requiring ones-compliment operations on each retrieved byte.
At this point, I can focus my attention more on seeing if I can get color
working if nothing else is going on with the backend.
Also, I have been able, with the help of a Mac, the Adobe PostScript
Printer Driver for the Mac, and GhostScript using the pdfwrite driver, I
have managed to get the DocViewer files into a format I can actually use
without needing a Mac, a PDF.
If anyone wants either or both works, please let me know. I especially
want to hear from OneScanner owners (Color OneScanner users are welcome,
too, but I'm far more interested in the OneScanner results).
Thanks. :)
--Ian.
