gscan2pdf - A GUI to produce a multipage PDF or DjVu from a scan.

http://gscan2pdf.sourceforge.net/

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 regular 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.

Changelog for 2.8.2:
* If previously used font no longer exists, automatically pick another
  one.
* Delete temporary files that fall off the undo buffer. Closes #350
  (When delete photos the files in /tmp are not deleted)
* Fix reload-recursion-limit problems after device-not-found mini-
  wizard.
  Closes Debian bug #965153 ("fails to open device" for Epson NX100)
* Update to German translation (thanks to Matthias Sprau)
* Update to Ukrainian translation (thanks to Yuri Chornoivan)
