Hello,
we used Fujitsu scanner (fi-5110 / fi-5120 / fi-6110) for a
long time with an old linux plateform and sane (1.0.22-9). These scanners used
the fujitsu backend.
We have recently changed to RHEL-6 with sane-backends-1.0.21
and to Debian with libsane-1.0.25.
We scan in lineart mode and we only put the threshold option to
reduce the size of document : scanimage -d 'fujitsu:XXX:XXX' --resolution 150
--mode lineart --threshold 140
Then we convert the image to PDF-A1. With the old plateform and
rhel-6, no problem. But with Debian and sane-1.0.25, the size of the documents
increase a lot.
Using a reference document, we get the following results with a fi-6110 :
- Rhel-6 / sane-1.0.21 = around 50 ko
- Debian / sane-1.0.25-2 = around 350 ko
It's quite the same problem if we used a fi-5110c and fi-5120c.
I downgrade the libsane package and look the result :
- Debian / libsane-1.0.22-7 = good
- Debian / libsane-1.0.23-3+b1 = good
- Debian / libsane-1.0.24-1 = NOT GOOD
- Debian / libsane-1.0.24-8u5 = NOT GOOD
- Debian / libsane-1.0.26Git = NOT GOOD
I change the value of threshold on Debian with sane-1.0.25 : threshold 0 or
200. But the image don't change. It's look like the threshold option has not
effect.
To reduce the problem, I play with the contrast and brightness option but the
result is not entirely satisfactory.
I think the problem is on the threshold option of the fujitsu backends.
It is probably the same bug but it don't lokk corrected in 1.0.26 :

Cordially.
