Plenty of options, depending on the type of business... (google for CRM - Customer Relationship Management) I am currently looking at Todoyu, but that is more for IT-support (a task manager with some CRM functions) Take a peek in Google-Apps they might have something for you without the hassle of setting things up...

I have done several thousand slides with it and it worked well. I couldn't get it to work with any sane related products as it does group scanning and some correction on the fly. It scans a sleeve of four slides in a single load. Vuescan worked very well. Just be careful of dirty slides. They are difficult to clean without damaging them. It is a bit costly at about $430 and the software costs a bit as well (around $40) - shareware type, not freeware. I bought the hardware at Black's back in 05 and the software on-line. I'm still using it so it's not available, sorry. The rest of my workflow was GIMP, to crop, clean, and brighten, then into Digikam to store in albums. -- An old mainframer getting current! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

PS: I did all this on Kubuntu 7.10, 8.04, and 8.10. -- An old mainframer getting current! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It works fine on kubuntu on a Dell Inspiron 6000.

To: CLUG General <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 I have a PrimeFilm PF3650Pro3 film scanner. I'm using the SilverFast software (sorry, WinXP only) to perform the scanning and colour/contrast adjustments and am very happy with the results. I have not been able to get it to work using sane under Linux. I found this scanner by studying this film-scanner site: http://www.filmscanner.info/en/ HTH, Hendrik Dan Mueller wrote: > Do any of you know of a slide/negative converter that will take a slide and > convert it to digital that works in Linux?? > > Or might any of you have one that works in Linux that you would like to > part with?? > ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca End of clug-talk Digest, Vol 59, Issue 22 ***************************************** _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
