[sane-devel] Individual Resolution for X and Y

[Oliver Rauch]

Hello Karl Heinz,

that depends on the file format in which the file is saved.
When the file format supports resolution settings or geometric options,
(tiff, ps, may be others) then the output should be correct.
File formats like pnm create an output with square pixels what
creates streched images.

Best regards
Oliver
