Title: SCANdal 1.4
Post by: rzookol on November 22, 2010, 05:25:13 PM
After quite a long break the final version of SCANdal 1.4 scanner software appeared.

Compared to version 1.3 program allows you to:
- Automatic imposition of a filter on the image after scanning
- Automatic printing after scanning
- Cropping and automatic calculation of the area to crop
- Saving information about the DPI in JPEG and TIFF files
- Load previously saved scans, along with DPI information using Reggae
- Use the ADF (auto document feeder)

The program is available here http://aminet.net/driver/other/scandal.lha

In addition, it has been added:
- MUI help balloons
- Configurable ruler

Errors in the handling of scanning sources has been fixed also.

The program looks great although I'm curious about what modern scanners are supported.

i made a drivers from epson2 and gt68xx SANE backend.
They should support quite a new scanners.

I'm working on other backends too (and ports for other amigalike system).

@rzookol
The program looks great indeed. Do you think you could build an AmigaOS 3.x port?

i have SCANdal 1.2 built for 3.x (works with existing betascan drivers):

and SCANdal 1.4 beta for aros (x86, with one driver for gt68xx scanners)
http://brain.umcs.lublin.pl/~rzookol/download/scandal_aros.lha

scandal 1.4 uses mui4 so some parts of code don't work in other OSes and have to be rewritten/turned off

Thank you for the links. I will probably try out the Aros version too. :)
