RE: Jetsoft Art Scan

["Laurie Solomon" <laurie@advancenet.net>]

I use the application for an older flatbed scanner.  It is good for what it
does and for its price.  It is not one of your high end applications but
neither is its price.  I am not currently at the computer with the software
on it so I cannot check out what I will be saying for accurracy.  Having
said that, I think that it is limited to low bit (8BIT/channel) scans.
While it does have provisions for color management and the recognition of
color profiles (mostly output profiles), it does not supply scanner profiles
for the scanners that it supports ( you have to either get them from the
manufacturer of the scanner or have them custom made).  I have found this
feature for the scanner that I am using to be its weakest feature. I do not
know if it will work or how it works with filmscanners ( I think it is
pretty much a flatbed oriented application).  It does not provide automated
matching functions like the more expensive high end programs like Binuscan
PhotoPerfect.

I do not know how it compare to Vuescan which is said to be an excellant
application that is constantly undergoing upgrading by its developer and
sells for around the same amount - if I am not mistake.

Does anyone have any comments / opinions about Jetsoft's Art-Scan, or
suggestions for other similar software.  Thanks.
