I've just completed the first exercise for using inkscape, which is to draw a Swedish flag. I saved it as a PDF and emailed it to a Swedish friend, but all he got when he viewed the image was an empty rectangle. It seems the trouble is that somewhere in the mail system, probably in their Windows m

Xsane scans only 8.5 x 11 inches of 8.5 x 14 inch documents

When an 8.5 x 14 in document is put into my scanner, xsane scans only the top 8.4 x 14 in portion of it. How can I change this behavior? (It's not easy.) Simple scan scans the entire document, so the problem is not with the scanner nor with the sane backend. Scanner: FUJITSU ScanSnap S1300 Xsa

Long time to report a crash

I have just reported a crash in Libre Office. The system took about an hour for it. Is this normal. I don't remember submitting crash reports taking so long. The bulk of the time was spent in "Generating backtrace", though "Initializing virtual root" also took a fair while. Here's the log:
