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.
