Description-en: GUI to produce PDFs or DjVus from scanned documents
Only five clicks are required to scan several pages and then save all or a
selection as a PDF or DjVu file, including metadata if required.
.
gscan2pdf can control flatbed or sheet-fed (ADF) scanners with SANE via
libimage-sane-perl, scanimage or scanadf, and can scan multiple
pages at once. It presents a thumbnail view of scanned pages, and permits
simple operations such as cropping, rotating and deleting pages.
.
OCR can be used to recognise text in the scans, and the output
embedded in the PDF or DjVu.
.
PDF conversion is done by PDF::API2.
.
The resulting document may be saved as a PDF, DjVu, multipage TIFF file, or
single page image file.
