A small comment regarding scanning "all pages" when scanning from ADF...
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>I agree that for the vast majority of scanning applications, scanning until
|
||
<BR>
|
||
the ADF is empty is exactly what the user wants. However, there are common
|
||
<BR>
|
||
variations...
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>In the production scanning world, group of pages to be scanned are sometimes
|
||
<BR>
|
||
interspersed with separator pages on which information about what to do with
|
||
<BR>
|
||
the group of pages is encoded. The scanners can actually decode the
|
||
<BR>
|
||
separators and process the group accordingly.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>Sorry if this adds more heat to the fire...

|
||
<P><P>Hi,
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P> sorry if by asking a few simple questions I have revived some old
|
||
<BR>
|
||
feuds :-) I'm new to this list and don't know much about the personal,
|
||
<BR>
|
||
or "cultural", side of the SANE project but it seems quite, errr,
|
||
<BR>
|
||
interesting...
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>I'll tell you what my view is on this. Call it the "user's
|
||
<BR>
|
||
perspective". I bought a scanner with ADF and duplex specifically
|
||
<BR>
|
||
because I want to scan a large amount of stuff automatically.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>I don't care for graphical front-ends because they usually involve
|
||
<BR>
|
||
something called "mouse" which tends to be difficult to automate.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>I want to put a stack of documents in the scanner, hit a button
|
||
<BR>
|
||
(preferrably on the scanner, not the computer), have a cup of tea and
|
||
<BR>
|
||
later find a bunch of files, neatly named "2001-03-01-doc1234-p2.tif"
|
||
<BR>
|
||
or such, in a directory created for that purpose. (Ideally, I'd also
|
||
<BR>
|
||
like the same file as .txt with a bit of auto-OCR thrown in but that's
|
||
<BR>
|
||
not the scope of SANE - unfortunately.)
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>This is, of course, worlds away from the kind of scanning done on a
|
||
<BR>
|
||
flatbed (or rotating drum) scanner by hobbyists or professionals,
|
||
<BR>
|
||
where individual objects of different sizes are scanned, previews are
|
||
<BR>
|
||
taken, windows defined, parameters tweaked, and so on. I just want the
|
||
<BR>
|
||
stuff on my hard disk, and I might invest some time to find the best
|
||
<BR>
|
||
settings but afterwards I want it to go through 1,000 pages without
|
||
<BR>
|
||
fuss. (Yes, I know, my ADF only holds 50 pages but I didn't have the
|
||
<BR>
|
||
money for the industrial version...)
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>If, every once in a while, I want to scan something using a graphical
|
||
<BR>
|
||
front-end, I will probably just insert one single sheet into the ADF.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
If the front-end, after scanning that one page, pops up a message
|
||
<BR>
|
||
saying "ADF out of documents", that's not nice but not a big deal
|
||
<BR>
|
||
either.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P><EM>> Well, I never understood, why ADF should mean: "scan all documents".
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> (even if it might be useful in some/most situations) There might be
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> persons that put 50 documents in there doc feeder and then just want
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> to scan 5 or 10, do something with the scans and then scan the next
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> 5 or 10.
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<P>This is - pardon the expression - bullshit. Of course you're right
|
||
<BR>
|
||
"theoretically", but - in my humble opintion - these "theoretically
|
||
<BR>
|
||
right" things are exactly those that keep people from developing
|
||
<BR>
|
||
practical applications. As I said, I got the ADF to scan a lot, and to
|
||
<BR>
|
||
be honest I would prefer to define the amount of pages to be scanned
|
||
<BR>
|
||
by inserting exactly that amount into the ADF, instead of having to
|
||
<BR>
|
||
use a mouse/keyboard/whatever to tell some piece of software that,
|
||
<BR>
|
||
yes, I have put 50 documents in the scanner but would it please, for
|
||
<BR>
|
||
now, just scan the first 3 of it...
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>Just my 2 cents,
|
||
<BR>
|
||
