Hello, I have Fedora 11 x86_64 system connected to a USB scanner. "lsusb" reports it as:
Seiko Epson Corp. Perfection 1200 "scanimage --version" says: scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.20; backend version 1.0.20 Here's what I do: - start xsane - make a preview scan - make a real scan when the new window with the scan result appears, I click on the 'save' icon, then go to "file type" which says "by extension" and select "PDF" or "PostScript" (or pretty much anything). CRASH. If, on the other hand, I leave "file type" set to "by extension" and write "foobar.ps" as filename, the scan is save as PostScript. cheers, Rob Urban
