Just released an update for Design Scanner, an app that’s doing surprisingly well in Asia for some reason. I’m a bit curious why it’s not performing as well in Europe, so giving it a little push here 😉. Create 3D models or floor plans using the LiDAR on your iPhone. Not a single line of code written with AI, just a whole app built with care, love, and over 20 years of experience as a game developer.

@br00t4c that is nothing new.

I was using #OfficeLens for #scanning documents with my #Android phone and saving them to PDF, because it gave me the best results and existing #FOSS apps were full of bugs.

Apparently, this functionality is now locked behind the "Microsoft connected experiences" and you cannot longer save anything to PDF without agreeing to upload your content to #Microsoft servers and letting them to analyze it.

Obviously, I'm uninstalling this app right now. It has become useless to me.

Screenshot of Microsoft Office Lens app. It shows a modal dialog that says "Use Microsoft 365 connected experiences. To enable this experience change your privacy settings." and two links: "Go to > Privacy settings" and "Learn more".

#linux #xsane #scanning #canondrf120

Hello alltogether, I have a question concerning scanning with Linux (Manjaro Linux, scanning with xsane, Scanner Canon DR-F120).
1. Only document feed is working, flatbed gives the error "feed is empty".
2. (more important) When I perform a preview scan, everything is fine, but when scanning, the colors are false. Magenta turns green and things like that. You can read it, but it would be cool, if the colors were fine.
Canon has no support for Linux 😞

Why is it that artist sketch book format is usually Arch A aka. 9x12" yet any scanner with a bed larger than 8.5x11" is at least $1,000 USD?

A DSLR is also way above my price range. I don't really know what to do. I'm tired of my crappy iPhone pictures poorly edited in Photoshop.

Artists of Mastodon, what's your setup to quickly digitize your analog media with ok quality?

#scanning #tips #software On the many software packages I've used for scans, and what, if anything, they excel at.

Document Scanner (GTK, Linux)- preview/scan are the same, and you can do multi-page/panel items fairly easily by re-scanning the page again and just moving the selection box to the next section.

Skanlite (KDE, Linux)- good for single page items, nice amount of configurable options for scans to adjust colors & other items. Used this with a auto-save mode for a while.

Skanpage (KDE, Linux)- multi-page documents, and things that need to be split in two (manuals, booklets, pamphlets, etc). Best option I've found on #linux for scanning things that fit on the glass that need to be split into two pages- just preview, pick split horizontal or split vertical, confirm the split is right, and then hit scan- it scans the thing and splits it for you.

#scanning A little about the scanners themselves that I've used:
#Canon CanoScan LiDE 300- this is a solid workhorse under Linux, and is what I used for quite a long term to do a wide variety of scans. I've used Gnome Document Scanner, KDE Skanlite & Skanpage with this.
#Plustek OpticSlim 2680H- picked this up as a "parts only" thing, and got lucky there. This is absolutely amazing when you have a magazine/brochure/pamphlet that fits open on the glass
#microtek XT3300- this is my book edge scanner (was cheaper than a Plustek OpticBook at the time).
