** Description changed: Binary package hint: xsane (Using a Canon LIDE 60 scanner on Ubuntu 7.04) In the XSane Preview window I can select for instance "DIN A4 portrait" for the "preset area" setting, but it seems the corresponding size at the bottom of the main XSane window does not follow correctly. Sometimes it changes when I change "preset area" but sometimes not. - - Finally I do a scan, and I can see it is for sure not A4. Then I do: - ps2ps -sPAPERSIZE=a4 testscan.pdf testscan.ps - ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=a4 testscan.ps testscan-new.pdf - and the final pdf is Letter size and not A4! - - I think XSane puts some size controls inside the postscript data that overrides my -sPAPERSIZE=a4 option. If I edit the ps file, and changes the occurrence of "letter" to "a4" like in: - 594 706 /letter setpagesize - and then do ps2pdf, I get an A4 pdf... Steps to reproduce: rm -r ~/.sane Start XSane Set output (from Viewer) to Save Set filename to out.pdf Set Preset Area to DIN A5 portrait Set Preset Area to DIN A4 portrait Click Scan And you get a A5 file instead of A4. Now for the rest that might be bugs in gs-common: ps2ps -sPAPERSIZE=a4 out.pdf out.ps - and you get a A5 sized ps - ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=a4 out.ps out-new.pdf - and you get a Letter size pdf + and you still get a A5 sized ps
