+Setup: +

+
+If XSane is started as Gimp plugin, the scanned image automatically is transfered to the Gimp. +
+
+
+ +
+
+ +   +Scanmode: +
+Select scanmode, e.g.: color, grayscale, halftone, lineart. +
+ + +   +Scansource: +
+Select scansource, e.g.: Flatbed, Transparency, Automatic Document Feeder. +
+ + +   +Scanmedium: +
+Select scanmedium, e.g.: slide, standard negative, +Agfa negative, ... or Full range. +
+ + +   +Scan resolution: +
+Select resolution that is used for scanning. If the backends makes available a +range of resolutions (e.g. 100-600 dpi) XSane can display a slider or a +list of resolutions. You select this via Preferences/Show resolution list. +
+The backend can define a list of resolutions insted of a range, in this +case it is not possible to enable the slider. +
+To select exact resolutions with the slider click the slider with the mouse pointer +and use the cursor keys to change the value in steps of 1, if you press ctrl +and a cursor key the step is 10. +
+
+
+To start xsane as a GIMP plugin, you have to set a symbolic link from +the xsane binary to a GIMP plug-ins directory. In the following examples +we assume that xsane is located in /usr/local/bin: +
+
+
+gimp-1.0.x:
ln -s /usr/local/bin/xsane ~/.gimp/plug-ins/
+You can start xsane from the GIMP menu Xtns/Xsane
-if you use gimp-1.1.x, you have to do: +
+
+gimp-1.1.x:
ln -s /usr/local/bin/xsane ~/.gimp-1.1/plug-ins/
+until gimp-1.1.9 you can start xsane from the GIMP menu Xtns/Xsane +
+since gimp-1.1.10 you can start xsane from the GIMP menu File/Acquire +
+
+
+gimp-1.2.x: +
+
ln -s /usr/local/bin/xsane ~/.gimp-1.2/plug-ins/
+You can start xsane from the GIMP menu File/Acquire. +
+
+
+The GIMP´s XSane or Acquire menu contains short-cuts to the SANE devices that +were available at the time xsane was queried.

-You can start xsane from the GIMP menu Xtns/Xsane if GIMP-version -< 1.1.9, since GIMP-version-1.1.9 you can start xsane from the GIMP -menu File/Acquire. It contains short-cuts to the SANE devices that -were available at the time xsane was queried. - -

Note that gimp(1) caches these short-cuts in ~/.gimp/pluginrc. -Thus, when the list of available devices changes (e.g., a new scanner -is installed or the device of the scanner has changed), then it is -typically desirable to rebuild this cache. To do this, you can either -touch(1) the xsane binary (e.g.,"touch /usr/local/bin/xsane") or -delete the plugin cache (e.g., "rm ~/.gimp/pluginrc"). Either + +

If xsane is started as GIMP plugin it always sends the scanned image -to the GIMP, copy- or fax- mode can not selected when xsane runs as GIMP -plugin!
