#3 Wrong target format with b/w-scanning and A4 format
NAPS is a tool i like to work with in future time. But there is a bug with b/w scanning. I need pdf documents in A4 format with 300pp. Otherwise my ocr will fail.
But: the outputsize is set to 65.62cm x 92.78cm !!
I tried older versions of NAPS2 down to 2.0. The same bug appeared.
I am no programmer. But let me know, when i can help with things like testing.
I'm experiencing this too.
Version: 2.6.3.41034
To reproduce, set scan profile to 200 dpi, black and white, A4. Scan some pages. Save to PDF.
Expected result:
PDF page size is A4 (21.0 by 29.7 cm)
Actual result:
PDF page size is 43.71 by 61.84 cm!!

It looks as like the export to PDF treats it as if it's 96dpi, so if you scanned at 96dpi it'll work fine, but if you scanned at any other resolution the resulting PDF will have the wrong page size.
