Package: gscan2pdf
Version: 1.7.3-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi Jeffrey,

I have tried to fix some issues that I have with gscan2pdf
in a series of patches at github:
  https://github.com/marschap/gscan2pdf/tree/updates_to_1.7.3

They comprise a series of fixes & improvements, like e.g:
- correct placement of bbox'es surrounding OCR'ed text
- correct orientation of OCR'ed text
- support for another option for unpaper: --no-mask-center
- new brightness & contrast tool (more flexible than the Threshold)
- new config setting to replace blanks with underscores when saving
- XDG-compliant config-file placement (incl. migration)
- fixed dealing with baselines
- wider borders & better aligned action buttons in dialogs
- ...

It would be cool if they (at least a subset) would make it into
upstream gscan2pdf.

Thanks for gscan2pdf
Peter
