Zach, (and All),<br>
<p>
Thanks for this intro about lpi and scanner -&gt; printer stuff.<br>
<p>
To stay in the same topic (I know sane-devel is not the proper place to<br>
deal with this, but who know a better place to speak about scanners and<br>
scanner related topics ?), I would like to have some advices about<br>
scanning color photos and sending them through a fax machine.<br>
<p>
Currently, I convert the PNM to JPG/GIF, then build a page in HTML, then<br>
use html2ps (<a href="http://www.tdb.uu.se/~jan/html2ps.html">http://www.tdb.uu.se/~jan/html2ps.html</a>), then send it with<br>
HylaFax.<br>
<p>
Of course, this is not the best (shorter) way to keep fine control on<br>
the pictures, but I can't find a better one.<br>
<p>
Any advices ?<br>
<p>
Nicolas.<br>
