GScan2PDF Device Error

[Udvarias Ur]

Dear Mr. Rotman,

I too am using GScan2PDF 0.9.32 except on Ubuntu 12.04.1 with a Brother
MFC-240C multifunction machine. When I first installed GScan2PDF 0.9.32,
I was using Ubuntu 11.10 and it worked just fine, at first. After
upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04.1 it ceased to work entirely. I downloaded all
the material (all the drivers (printer, scanner, FAX, and PCFAX as well
as the installation instructions) again. I read through the installation
instructions to ensured that each and very step had been followed and
executed.

I found that I had omitted adding a couple of lines to
        /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules.

Now that I added those line all is well again. I don't know why
GScan2PDF worked on 11.10 without those lines, however, it doesn't
matter now does it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a slightly different note.

I don't understand why Canonical has not replaced GScan2PDF 0.9.32 with
GScan2PDF 1.0.0. GScan2PDF 1.0.0 uses version 3.01 of the Tesseract OCR
engine which supports 18 languages* and all their alphabets. Or even the
more recent GScan2PDF 1.0.6 which *may* use Tesseract 3.02 which
supports 64 languages# and all their alphabets.

* Hebrew, English, Hindi, Arabic, Thai, Slovakian, Cherokee, German,
Swedish, Quechua, Chinese (Traditional), Chinese (Simplified),
Indonesian, Swedish, Romanian, Slovenian, Serbian, Tagalog.
