Package: sane-utils
Version: 1.0.22-7.4
Hello,
I can confirm that scanimage truncates pnm files. I am using a brother
DCP7010 print/scan combo on a LAN. The back-end seems to report the
paper size wrongly or do faulty rounding (I think it should truncate to
nearest pixel, while in fact it just rounds to the nearest millimeter,
which is, upwards in this particular case). Strangely enough the
individual lines are not misaligned, just some at the bottom are missing.
I used following command line:
scanimage -d net:192.168.0.3:brother2:bus3;dev1 --mode True Gray
--resolution 200 --buffer-size=1 /mnt/sda1/asdf.pnm
and got the following messages back:
scanimage: rounded value of br-x from 210 to 209.981
scanimage: rounded value of br-y from 297 to 296.973
scanimage --help shows:
Usage: scanimage [OPTION]...
Start image acquisition on a scanner device and write image data to
standard output.
Parameters are separated by a blank from single-character options (e.g.
-d epson) and by a = from multi-character options (e.g.
--device-name=epson).
-d, --device-name=DEVICE use a given scanner device (e.g. hp:/dev/scanner)
--format=pnm|tiff file format of output file
-i, --icc-profile=PROFILE include this ICC profile into TIFF file
-L, --list-devices show available scanner devices
-f, --formatted-device-list=FORMAT similar to -L, but the FORMAT of the
output
can be specified: %d (device name), %v (vendor),
%m (model), %t (type), %i (index number), and
%n (newline)
-b, --batch[=FORMAT] working in batch mode, FORMAT is `out%d.pnm' or
`out%d.tif' by default depending on --format
--batch-start=#page number to start naming files with
--batch-count=#how many pages to scan in batch mode
--batch-increment=#increase page number in filename by #
--batch-double increment page number by two, same as
--batch-increment=2
--batch-prompt ask for pressing a key before scanning a page
--accept-md5-only only accept authorization requests using md5
-p, --progress print progress messages
-n, --dont-scanonly set options, don't actually scan
-T, --test test backend thoroughly
-A, --all-options list all available backend options
-h, --help display this help message and exit
-v, --verbose give even more status messages
-B, --buffer-size=#change input buffer size (in kB, default 32)
-V, --version print version information
