I can confirm this on 11.10 (simple-scan 3.2.1). When saving as PDF, this occurs at the end of the "simple-scan -d" output:

When I attempt to save the scanned pages as a PDF file, the file is not created properly. The worst part though, is that Simple scan closed automatically when this problem occurs, and then all scanned pages are lost. As I mentioned, this problem does not occur all the time. In most cases, the PDF file saves normally. Furthermore, when a file saves normally, simple scan stays open. Only when a file does not save properly Simple scan closes automatically and the data is lost. I noticed that this problem occurs when there are a larger number of pages to be saved. The latest time this problem occurred, I had attempted to save exactly 41 pages - all were lost. I am attaching the improperly saved PDF file, which cannot be opened by evince.
