Greetings,
<BR>
<P>I'm running RH 6.2 and using the supplied version of Gimp and sane-1.0.1-4. I
<BR>
have a problem getting output from this combination that comes close to the
<BR>
quality of the output I get using the supplied Windows Twain interface (
<BR>
VistaScan ) that came with my UMAX Astra 1220S.
<BR>
<P>The problem is difficult to explain but if you look at these jpegs I think you
<BR>
can see what I mean. There is a faint line of pixels on the xscanimage
<BR>
captured image and it's hard to see here but the uniformaty of the pixels on
<BR>
the vistascan captured image is much smoother than that of xscanimage.
<BR>

<BR>
<P>Both images are scanned using the same source at 300 dpi. I've used whatever
<BR>
default settings there are with each interface.
<BR>
<P>Am I missing something here?
<BR>
Do I just not know how to use the interface to get good results?
<BR>
Is there some tweaking of my setup that must be done?
<BR>
<P>I'd really like to solve this once and for all so that I don't have to do all
<BR>
my scanning from Windows and all my editing from Linux. Doing everything from
<BR>
Linux would be much better.
<BR>
<P>Any help would be great.
<BR>
<P>Cheers,
<BR>
<PRE>
