Re: Should a scanned image under Linux and Windows look similiar?
Thanks for your responses. I am a naive novice when it comes to scanners and images, ...which was my problem. When I turned off the "RGB Defaults" so that they could be adjusted, the "Autoadjust" feature worked very well. http://www.totalnetnh.net/~lamb/scan_linux.jpg http://www.totalnetnh.net/~lamb/scan_linux2.jpg Thanks, Larry ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss

I recently scanned a bunch of stuff using xsane, and the default settings were way too dark; I had to adjust the gamma up to get the images to come out looking good. When I tweaked the settings, though, the scans came out looking exactly like the original photos. It looks like your xsane settings are overenhancing the green; you should pop into the expanded mode (click on the icon on the left, that looks like a tree-tined multicolor fork) and try tweaking the color settings individually. - -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix ICQ 28611923 / AIM abreauj / JABBER [EMAIL PROTECTED] / YAHOO abreauj Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] / WWW http://www.abreau.net / PGP-Key-ID 0xD5C7B5D9 PGP-Key-Fingerprint 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iQCVAwUBPd1ucVV9A5rVx7XZAQJNygQAnMv4mlp8PcaJrIptQBr/kcTGupPVwKQr 3LFrbNacEhmyTTuN0mtsnfiNVkfq0jCCm1Voapkr7IAwjN++CfQ1BL6S5xEW3q4y sIg+5Gf3wukbKalsH3dMYlBQH4KmMV8KkzLOFiajfVVwIPWmz9Rh9u2+esxx8qcv MAE4vnthdgU= =Qt6A -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss

> http://www.totalnetnh.net/~lamb/scan_windows.jpg > http://www.totalnetnh.net/~lamb/scan_linux.jpg Well, the look the same except the linux one has NO red in it. it's like it got filtered out some how. Is it a 3 pass color scanner? ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
Should a scanned image under Linux and Windows look similiar?
I am a naive novice when it comes to scanners and images, so maybe this is a ridiculous expectation, but I would think that a scanned image under Linux would look fairly close to one scanned under Windows, especially when run on the exact same hardware. Both XSane and the Windows software have default scan values that are almost identical. So why aren't the images almost identical? Here are the two images: http://www.totalnetnh.net/~lamb/scan_windows.jpg http://www.totalnetnh.net/~lamb/scan_linux.jpg The Windows scan is extremely close to the original photo. I have purposely omitted h/w and s/w specifics because I want to know if I have an unreasonable expectation.
