User Reviews

  • It can save to .djvu and .pdf. I use it very often.
  • I have been using this program for several years. It has progressed into a reliable and very useful application for the things I need to do regarding scanning items. It has improved considerably from the early days. The only issue I have is the loss of being able to scan in Black and White only (Lineart). It would be nice to get that ability back.
  • I have not used it much yet but I am already extremely happy that at last I can now use the scanning feature of my Ricoh SP 112su in Ubuntu. Thank you so much for this software!! :-)
  • I have been using this software for decades and it has always done a great job. I'm not a big fan of Perl in general, but Jeffrey Ratcliffe definitely uses it well!
  • Very nice and useful. It works great on both Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04. Tested with an Epson WF-7620 and a Canon i-SENSYS MF746Cx.
