<P>
Sorry Shailendra ,
<BR>
<P>The answer to your question is that SANE does not support storage of
<BR>
specific file formats. The image is returned from the scanner in the
<BR>
format specified in the SANE standard. If you wish to save the image in
<BR>
another format then you are responsible for handling this.

<EM>&gt; Hi all
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; But sirs,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; could you please give answer to my earlier question?
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I have undergone all the mails related to this topic but
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; my impression is that sane-1 doesn't support storage in
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; specific file format.Is it true? If so give me some guidelines
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; what to do.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Thanks &amp; regards
</EM><BR>

<EM>&gt; &gt; Oliver,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; But if it was compulsary for a b/e to support the current transfer
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; mechanism then couldn't the f/e simply fall back to using this method if
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; it didn't support other image encodings.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; The frontend or the backend has to be able to uncompress the compressed
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; image
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; format to do a preview.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; If we do the transformation in the frontend, we have to change
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; - several frontends
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; - the sane standard
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; If we do the transformation in the backend, only the relevant backend
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; has to include a transformation. The sane standard can keep the same.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; So I think it is compulsary to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; - include the transformation (uncompression) in the backend for sane-1
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; - add support for new file formats to sane-2
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Bye
