I'd have to disagree with you on this on, Nick. If you have a scanner<br>
|
||
that has an integral barcode/patchcode decoding feature that works on the<br>
|
||
surrently scanned image data in the firmware of the scanner, do we want to<br>
|
||
use SANE just to get the image data? Then do we get an OCR package to<br>
|
||
decode in software, the barcodes out of the saved image data? I've<br>
|
||
observed that the scanner firmware does it more quickly and more reliably, <br>
|
||
than an OCR approach and it does it at scan time rather than a separate<br>
|
||
pass.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Although this is an obscure feature when you consider the types of scanners <br>
|
||
that individuals own, it's quite common with production level document <br>
|
||
scanners. It's not new. These capabilities have existed for several <br>
|
||
years.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
TWAIN 1.7 and ISIS support this data exchange, and SANE should as well,<br>
|
||
I think. I don't see why high-speed production document scanning with<br>
|
||
barcode/patchcode support is out of the scope of SANE.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Scanners from Bell+Howell, Kodak, Ricoh, and others have barcode/patchcode<br>
|
||
support.<br>
