Dear all, First of all, apologies for not announcing any of our releases since November 2010 on the list. My bad.
A new release of Image Scan! for Linux has been made available at our website[1]. This release updates both the core and data packages. For information on which versions of what packages you need, please see the FAQ[2] on that topic.

Noteworthy changes to the core package: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- iscan-2.26.4 (2011-06-01) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * now wraps overly long model names in scanner selection dialog * now uses the document's binding edge to orient all images the same way up for double-sided ADF scans saved to PDF.
