Apologies for crossposting the gscan2pdf-help list, Debian, and Ubuntu bugs, but it makes no sense to have the same conversation three times.
I've installed the main dependencies from sid and still can't reproduce this. Does it make a difference if the image is imported or scanned? Please apply the attached patch, which simply adds a couple of debugging messages so that I can home in on where this coming from, start gscan2pdf with the --debug option, try to save a PDF, quit, and post the output from the command line. Regards Jeff
