I am searching open source for an alternative similar to PaperPort, Pagis Pro, OmniPage or PageKeeper, applications running on Windows.
Zope is an Application Server, it has nothing to do with scanning.
They provide a platform to keep all scanned images which can then be stacked page after page, removing or re-inserting the pages stacked if required. Finally printing them as a pdf file or other format.
This would not be hard to write.
One more important job is data searching on the scanned images. On PaperPort you can create a database bank on all scanned images and do data searching.
How do you want to search images? convert them to text? not Zope's job... -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:" net@madduck note: the pgp.net keyservers and their mirrors are broken! get my key here: http://people.debian.org/~madduck/gpg/330c4a75.asc "syntactic sugar causes cancer of the semicolon." -- epigrams in programming
