| willwh | KombuchaKip: awesome | 02:34 |
|---|---|---|
| willwh | I use simple scan a lot, I have anold scanner with no current win drivers | 02:34 |
| willwh | so my wife getting linux exposure when she needs to scan stuff | 02:34 |
| willwh | haha | 02:34 |
| BobJonkman | KombuchaKip: I've been using YAGF for OCR (mostly with PDFs that have scanned images of MS-Word docs. sigh.) | 02:44 |
| BobJonkman | http://symmetrica.net/cuneiform-linux/yagf-en.html | 02:44 |
| BobJonkman | So, option 1 in the bug report to launch something like YAGF would suit my purposes just fine! | 02:45 |
| KombuchaKip | willwh & BobJonkman: Thanks a lot for your feedback. I implore you to please post your encouragement of completion of this feature request on Launchpad at the bug report page. It will encourage my colleagues to task me with further desktop bugs and feature requests. | 02:46 |
| BobJonkman | KombuchaKip: Will do! | 02:47 |
| KombuchaKip | BobJonkman: Much appreciated. If it is important to you, please let me colleagues know on the page. | 02:47 |
| KombuchaKip | BobJonkman: *my colleagues | 02:47 |
| BobJonkman | I have to admit, I haven't been running around in circles, wild-eyed and bushy-haired, wailing "Oh, if only I had integrated OCR scanning from within SimpleScan". | 02:48 |
| BobJonkman | But it would be good to have, regardless. | 02:48 |
| BobJonkman | Done! https://bugs.launchpad.net/simple-scan/+bug/483391/comments/25 | 02:52 |
| lubotu1 | Launchpad bug 483391 in Simple Scan "Extract text using optical character recognition (OCR)" [Wishlist,In progress] | 02:52 |
| KombuchaKip | BobJonkman: Thanks a lot. | 02:57 |
| BobJonkman | KombuchaKip: You're welcome. | 02:58 |
| BobJonkman | Do you want me to tickle the Ubuntu-ca mailing list with this? | 02:58 |
| KombuchaKip | BobJonkman: You are most welcome to! | 03:01 |
| BobJonkman | OK, a bit later. I'm supposed to be working on something, but I've been procrastinating. So now I'm going to procrastinate on that, to avoid procrastinating on the other. | 03:02 |
| KombuchaKip | BobJonkman: No worries man. | 03:50 |
