scantailor-advanced is an interactive/GUI post-processing program for scanned pages (jpg|png|tiff, not pnm) offering de-skew, crop, rotation, 'binarisation', de-speckle, de-warp, etc.Based on a currently-maintained fork of previous projects scantailor/scantailor-enhanced. I have kept the rather long name scantailor-advanced to differentiate from these and match the binary filename.Built against Qt6 (Qt5 is also possible/tested, but Qt5 HiDPI support is basic).There is a website https://scantailor.net that hints it is the 'official' one: actually it links to a fork that is behind the active project and offers little except marketing claims, so I have not added it as HOMEPAGE.tested on amd64/current (Aug 14) and amd64/7.9-stable with a few mono/greyscale document scans.Tests/comments welcome. Is this of interest to import if OK? Chris
Updated version attached of this draft port, built against Qt6. - Changed DESCR to more clearly state what it does: Batch processing of jpg, png, tiff (not pnm) files scanned from books, damaged/faded documents and other images prior to OCR. Provides page splitting (book scanning), de-skew, crop, rotation, 'binarisation' (background removal), de-speckle, de-warp, defect removal. A demo video of an earlier version [1] provides more detail. - DISTNAME -> scantailor-advanced- Added HOMEPAGE https://scantailor.net (same developer, but site refers to earlier version)
- Tidy up Makefile Passes depends checks and portcheck Tested on 8.0-beta/amd64 Sun Sep 20 20:24:13 UTC 2026 Testing welcome, is anyone willing to consider this for import? Chris [1] https://vimeo.com/12524529
