Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: simple-scan
When scanning a multi-page document such as a book where a double page
spread fits onto the scanner, it would be nice to be able to crop out
two separate regions which become two distinct pages in the scanned
document. At the moment it seems to be necessary to use some other tool
to post-process the scanned document or scan each double page spread
twice and crop out the desired page each time.
At the simplest level, I think this could be done by providing buttons which
perform each half of the 'Scan' button's behaviour. The 'Scan' button
effectively seem to do the following:
- add the (cropped, if cropping is in use) current page to the document being
built up
- scan a new page
If these two pieces of functionality were made available separately, it
would be possible to crop out the first page of a double page spread,
click 'add', crop out the second page of the double page spread, then
click 'scan' (or 'add' and 'scan without add').
Obviously it would also be possible to implement this by allowing two
crop areas at the same time, but I thought the above would be simple to
implement and fairly simple to use.
