I am scanning pictures my wife draws analogue with crayons, some coloured<br>
and some black/white. They all base on an good and strong A4 paper. I scan<br>
them (Epson) with 2400 dpi, and receive usually files of about 4 to 7 MB as<br>
*.png files. Saved with TIFF is usually over 30MB, but several tests we<br>
produced are not showing any real improvement.<br>
<br>
As first handling, I save the files immediately as a Gimp-file, *.xcf,<br>
receiving more than double the *.png-file.<br>
<br>
When I look now at these files via digiKam, I can see all files I have<br>
further manipulated like cropped to ideal format (usually eliminating white<br>
unwanted space) and trimmed the picture into the correct size for later<br>
printing. However, the original scaned *.pdf, neither the correxponding<br>
*.xcf file is shown, just a symbol shows that there is something, Klicking<br>
on it does not start anything.<br>
<br>
I searched in Settings, Configure DigiKam, if I can find something to allow<br>
larger files but found nothing.<br>
<br>
Can anybody help me?<br>
<br>
Kubuntu 14.04-5, 4 core, 8gb RAM<br>
