@ Naruto

I use Omnipage Pro 17 and it does not know shit about book curvature. The spliting of facing pages is also not very precise in omnipage.
I was already looking for software which can detect page borders and automatically crop the images at the margins. If it can do all that then this would definitely be a keeper.

this is pretty awesome software. Not many programs for scanning can really even take into account the curvature of the book and correct it.

I ran it in Windows virtual machine with Ubuntu as host. I find that is the best way to run Windows application without having to sacrifice my favorite Ubuntu.

I found this writeup and software concept very interesting. However I found your choice of scanned books hope-crushing. I had high hopes of there being linux support based on that book scan but as far as I can tell from their website and forums, they lack linux support and go as far as saying they don’t have any intentions of gaining it (very roughly paraphrased). Have you got it running under wine or is the choice of books entirely coincidental?

Snapter is rather strict about the border and background of the image. It need to have a distinct border of direct contrast with the image or clear background with nothing blocking in the top and bottom. You can read more about it at http://www.snapter.atiz.com/learnmore.php

Sounds like an awesome tool that has been needed like forever!

I did just try it on a couple of images I had on my hard drive, one was a two page spread of a book printed in 1813 that was very clear to read in the original but curved and yellow/brownish color. The other was a the bottom part of a manuscript.

Both documents came out totally black and unreadable after the scan. Maybe I’m doing something wrong but there does not seem to be any instructions on how to fix these sorts of things.

This is just my first response and will test more.

I hope it does what they say, that would be so cool.
