[Bug 204988] Re: gscan2pdf generates blank pages in the .pdf output

In the --debug output, you scan a page, but do not save a PDF.

Excuse me if I am stating the obvious, but you realise that there are
two set of options on the save dialog, firstly the file type - i.e. PNG,
JPG, PDF, DjVu, etc., and if you select PDF, then you can select the
compression type, i.e. LZW, PNG, JPG, etc.

You should be able to save any page as PNG, JPG, TIFF etc. Does this not
work?

This indicates that not all the pages have been marked as saved. Note
that you can either save the selected pages or all pages.
