SUMMARY

Would be great if skanlite could let users indicate the scan area textually and not just graphically.

For instance, this is important so that when an A4 page is to be scanned, one can get exactly an A4 and not something close to it.

For additional convenience, it would be useful to have a dropdown of commonly used formats (A4, A5, etc.) and a button to make them either "left aligned" or "centered", because on flatbed scanners you align on one side, while most ADFs have "symmetric" guides that align the paper to the center of the scanner bed.

I like this idea.

This has been implemented for some time now, thus closing
