This program provides a viewer for image files such as pdf, jpeg and its own variant of PaperPort's .max file format.
See the INSTALL file for installation instructions.

- simple GUI based around stacks and pages
- view previews and browse through pages
- move pages in and out of stacks
- navigate through directories
- move stacks between directories
- double click to view full size page image (also on right pane)
- print stacks and pages, including page annotations
- full undo/redo
new in 0.4:
- basic scanning
- partial creation of .max files (but monochrome images are uncompressed) (also it doesn't create greyscale/colour previews)
new in 0.5:
- better scanning, should now work properly with SANE and most scanners
- stacking/unstacking, moving files between directories, etc.
- colour previews are created (greyscale still not sorry)
- PDF, JPEG and TIFF conversion supported. Results may vary
- View quality menu to trade speed for quality
new in 0.7:
- better multithreaded scanning
- undo/redo
- better PDF support
- preview panes
- OCR engine
- zooming in and out in preview windows (hold down control and use mouse wheel)
- rewritten for QT4
- many many other changes and improvements
new in 0.7.1:
- a few bug fixes
new in 0.8
- first github release
- new icon
- cleaned up README
new in 1.0
- fully ported to QT4
- should build on very modern distributions that don't have QT3
new in 1.0.1
- builds with QT5, including on Ubuntu 20.04 Focal
Here's what I'd like it to support:
- more operations on images
- support for more image types (at the moment only JPEG is supported)
If you have other ideas then feel free to let me know on the mailing list.
