<P><EM>&gt; Yeah, that's not the issue. Supporting postscript is no big deal. You send
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; it to ghostscript and select the g3 backend. For text, word processing
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; documents, figures, and anything else that is being rasterized, this works
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; great. The quality is fine.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; For a scanned image (i.e. something that's already a raster) it's sorta
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; almost identifiable if you hold it 3 feet away and squint. The resolution
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; gets munged. So outputting postscript in XSane eliminates its usefulness as
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; a fax solution.

<P>Hi,
<BR>
<P>I just did some tests:
<BR>
scanning an image as lineart and saving it as pbm and as postscript via xsane fax option.
<BR>
Afterwards I convertedt the postscript file with the following command to a pbm file:
<BR>
gs -sDEVICE=pbmraw -r98 -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -sOutputFile=xxx.pbm testfa
<BR>
x/page-001.ps
<BR>
<P>There has been no visible difference between both outputs.
<BR>
<P>Gs-Version:
<BR>
gs -v
<BR>
GNU Ghostscript 5.10 (1998-12-17)
<BR>
Copyright (C) 1997 Aladdin Enterprises, Menlo Park, CA. All rights reserved.
<BR>
<P>So it look like ghostscript does not make any problems converting the created postscript files.
<BR>
May be the fax programs have problems setting the correct options for ghostscript - if they use
<BR>
ghostscript.
<BR>
<P>So I see no reason to change anything in xsane.
<BR>
<P>Any comments?
<BR>
<P>Bye
<BR>
Oliver
