I don't think it is reasonable to expect Ubuntu to update packages in
LTS without security problems, but I am glad that you now have the
latest release working.
I can't reproduce your problem with the clean/unpaper dialogue box. If I
first delete Layout=Double, I can then select #output pages = 1
Hi Jeffrey,
Well I am slightly shocked that Ubuntu does provide me with such an old
version in a supported version of their linux-distribution.
I followed the advice on this page and now I am on version 2.1.7:
http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2017/03/install-latest-gscan2pdf-ubuntu-16-04/
That explains things. You are using a 2.5 year-old version. I changed
the compression for lineart images for auto from lzw to png in v1.5.3.
In that case there is no need to try to reproduce the bug and we can
close this.
Thanks for the feedback
** Changed in: gscan2pdf (Ubuntu)

Hi Jeffrey,
The version I am using is 1.3.9 on Ubuntu 16.04.
I changed the setting back to Auto and when I will manage to reproduce
the issue, I will let you know!
Best, EJ

This was a real bug. Before I close it, please confirm which version of
gscan2pdf you are using so that I can tell whether

Hi Jeffrey,
In fact I had never changed the compression type setting, it was still
on Aut0, yet I got the garbled pages.. Now I set it to PNG, let's see
whether the issue re-occurs.
I apologize for overwriting the file with the garbled pages, I will keep
it next time the issue occurs.

Which version of gscan2pdf are you using?
Your problem sounds like a known issue in the LZW compression in
PDF::API2, which gscan2pdf uses to create the PDFs.
Please selected auto or PNG compression when you are saving the PDF.
If that doesn't work around the problem, please attach an example
