gImageReader is a simple Gtk/Qt front-end to tesseract. Features include: - Import PDF documents and images from disk, scanning devices, clipboard and screenshots - Process multiple images and documents in one go - Manual or automatic recognition area definition - Recognize to plain text or to hOCR documents - Recognized text displayed directly next to the image - Post-process the recognized text, including spellchecking - Generate PDF documents from hOCR documents **Note**: This page is only a mirror for the downloads. Development is happening on github at https://github.com/manisandro/gImageReader, release binaries are also posted there.

[Important] The project moved to GitHub. Please use the following GitHub project page from now on: https://github.com/twain/twain-dsm The home of the TWAIN Data Source Manager (DSM). The DSM manages the interactions between TWAIN applications and TWAIN Data Sources for the acquisition of images from scanners and cameras. This DSM is open source software and uses LGPL licenses.

SANEWinDS: SANE Windows Data Source. Enables SANE scanners installed on unix-like hosts, including thin clients, to be accessed from Windows workstations and terminal servers. Can be used standalone or as a TWAIN Data Source. Implemented in a DLL for easy integration within other .Net programs.

[Important] The project moved to GitHub. Please use the following GitHub project page from now on: https://github.com/twain/twain-samples Use the TWAIN 2 sample data source and application, to test your TWAIN project, or as templates to incorporate TWAIN into your graphic applications or Scanner drivers. The samples are released as open source software and uses a Modified BSD licenses.

pcdtojpeg converts PCD (Kodak Photo CD) image files into high quality JPEG images. Conversions are at the maximum available PCD resolution, and are fully color managed - no blown highlights or color casts. A C++ PCD decoder library is also available.

minidjvu is a DjVu encoder for black-and-white images.

Linux printing, scanning, and photo-card access on most HP multi-function peripherals.

Scan Tailor has moved: http://scantailor.org https://github.com/scantailor/scantailor The sourceforge page will stay up in the interim, but all new activity will be done on the new github page. Scan Tailor is an interactive post-processing tool for scanned pages. It performs operations such as page splitting, deskewing, and removing garbage.

YASW (Yet Another Scan Wizard) is an application used to correct images taken with a camera. It can be used to post process the scanning of a book (see http://http://www.diybookscanner.org/ ) or to correct an individual image taken with our camera (A poster in the street). You can see YASW (0.5) in action in Youtube http://youtu.be/__a9urAtQD4 thanks to David Landin. He also wrote an illustrated manual for YASW 0.5: http://sourceforge.net/projects/yascanw/files/YASW%200.5/How%20to%20use%20YASW%200.5.pdf/download

Scanning albums is not an easy task, since the extraction of actual photographs within scans is usually very tedious. This tool allows you to scan as much as you can fit into your scanner and then semi-automatedly extract the contained photographs. The tool also allows to extract scans of multiple single photographs (i.e. without album) Find a full documentation here: http://dominik-ruess.de/scannerExtract/ Note: The scanning itself is the most time consuming part. Maker sure you optimize that process. (see some hints on the link above.) Hint: **I NEED YOUR DATA**. If you have scans which won't be recognized well give me these (If they're not too personal etc - I won't use it for anything else than to improve this software). You might be interested in my other photography project (organize photographs and videos): https://sourceforge.net/projects/pivot-photo/

ScanTWAIN is an Open Source TWAIN production quality scanning application based on QT 3.x. ScanTWAIN allows for duplex scanning from automatic document feeder (ADF) based scanners via TWAIN.

Scanner Copier scans multiple pages in Windows and prints them as a single document. This can be used in conjunction with PDFCreator in order to make PDF files from scanned documents similar to other 'scan to PDF' software.

[Important] The project moved to GitHub. Please use the following GitHub project page from now on: https://github.com/twain/wia-on-twain A WIA on TWAIN driver implementation designed to expose all necessary scanner functionality while adhering to the WIA 1.0 and WIA 2.0 specification and achieving compatibility with all WIA compliant applications.

OpenExif is an object-oriented library for accessing Exif formated JPEG image files. The toolkit allows creating, reading, and modifying the metadata in the Exif file. It also provides means of getting and setting the main image and the thumbnail image.

Graphical interface for Cuneiform OCR

It uses libksane to scan images and allows to save to basic graphics format and to pdf (also multiply images to one pdf file)

The Photo, Image and Video Organization Tool - Pivot - is a tool for the first step of the image (and video) processing tool chain. Pivot can organize your images from the hard drive or directly from the camera. It allows you to specify destination folders and filename patterns for the copying process. The organization is mainly based on the creation date and time of the images. For a list of features of pivot, refer to the pivot homepage.

Java Image Acquisition Library

A Qt GUI for archiving old floppies, CD-ROMs and other types of media to organized collections of disk image files, along with scanned images of the disks' physical appearance so that you can find them later by their familiar looks.

An omnifont OCR engine. The long-term goal is recognition of formulas.

The development has moved to KDE (kdegraphics and extragear). The new names are libksane for the library and Skanlite is the application.
