Hi Alf, thanks for your interest and feedback. Generally speaking, opening more tickets does not improve the situation as it splits up the attention. Better help us to improve the existing tickets.
On the other hand you should always have one issue per ticket and not do collections like this, again to keep discussion focused. So, as a consequence, I suggest that you: - merge your info "1" into page size setting is broken, use it as default crop or fix it by other means Simple Scan Bugs Bug #550856 - explain what the expected behavior is for issue "2", so I can suggest a ticket where to discuss it - add your info about "3" to PDF metadata: Date of creation and modification is incorrectly set (or not set at all) -- so this issue can be reopened Best Regards Michael -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to simple-scan in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1167826 Title: Simple scan produces wrong size documents Status in “simple-scan” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This is my first bug report, hope it will be helpful. There are several similar reports, most of which are classified as duplicates of https://bugs.launchpad.net/simple-scan/+bug/550856 I'm reporting this as new because the above mentioned report is treated as a feature request (wishlist), maybe the description wasn't precise enough. Running Simple Scan 3.6.0 on Ubuntu Studio 12.10, three issues occur: 1. Setting page size in preferences doesn't affect the size of a scanned document. Regardless of this setting scanning and saving produces a document 216 x 297 mm 2. crop does not produce expected results. Simple Scan saves documents cropped to "A4" as 211 x 297 mm 3. Document metadata states that the document was created on Jan 1st, 1970. Attached is a screenshot of evince reading file properties.
