I am currently scanning many old colour photo's on my new epsom scannerHi John. Don't know why Konq. won't display those pics, but why are you taking the long way home? If you are using Xsane to scan, then just change the file ending to *.jpg and it will save in the JPG format, then you can skip having to do a conversion. :-)
These produce .pnm files which I covert in gimp to .jpeg files and write
to cd.
Everything works fine except that these converted jpeg files will not
display
in konqueror , the sliderbar gets about 65% of the way through the process
and hangs. These files have no problem being displayed in gimp, and indeed
konq has no problem with my digital camera produced jpeg files, only
gimp converted from .pnm files are the problem.
Anyone got any ideas as to why ?
John
When I do it like that - the resulting pics display fine.
Hope this helps! :-)
Xsane the scanner programme, it creates a .pnm file but if I change the file to .jpg it creates
a .jpg file automatically in my chosen directory. However I believe it employs gimp to do this,
I maybe Wrong, but whether it does or not these .jpg files don't all readily display in konqueror
and although they do display just fine in gimp , it's the konqueror aspect I'm questioning .
Why does konqueror choke on doing the same thing other programmes can do easily ?
