It's easy to overlook that rectanglep; I know that I did >when I first started using xsane. Thanks for the suggestion. I have long known of the dotted rectangle, but adjusting it does not help. That is, when I first click on Get Preview in the Preview window it scans only the left 3.99 inches of the page. When I adjust the rectangle the main window changes the page dimensions to match the new rectangle. But when I then click on Scan it still scans only the left 3.99 inches, regardless of the dimensions of the new rectangle. I forgot to say that this is Xsane 0.997 on Fedora 11 x86_64. The other scanning programs I used (gscan2pdf and Skanlite [KDE]) are alternative front ends for the same scanning utility. >From previous threads I know there is at least one other owner of a Canoscan LiDE 30 on the PLUG list. It would be really helpful if another user could report their results. At least then I can rule out hardware issues. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
