New Document from Scanner -> page layout problem

Post by ecky »

I test pdfxchange viewer 2.0 Build 42.0 to buy.
"new document from scanner" is the important feature for me, but there is a problem with page layout.

I scan an document in layout A4, in scanner software the output layout is selected to A4 too but in pdfxchange viewer the document has big white margins and the image of scanned document is zoomed out.

How can i fix this?

Thanks, ecky

Sure. Here is a scanned completely green A4 document. You can see the big white margins in PDF-Document.
My scanner is "Canon Pixma MP780".
But I can use other scan2pdf or scan2printer software without this problem. So i think it's not a scanner driver problem. Also I tried both drivers, the "twain" and "wia" driver - without success. The output layout in scanner software is set to A4.

Best regards, ecky

Will change behavior into next build.
For now you can use New Document from Images to set page size and margins. On this dialog there is button "Import" which will allow you to scan images
