Skanpage
What it is
Skanpage is a free Linux application for scanning multi-page documents, as well as single-page documents and images. It works with flatbed and automatic document feeder (ADF) scanners, with configurable options for the scanning device. Before saving, scanned pages can be reordered, rotated, or deleted. Skanpage saves multi-page scans as PDF documents and can also save image files; OCR is included. KDE lists the application under the GPL-2.0+ license. Linux installation is available through AppStream application stores or a distribution package manager, and KDE also links to Flathub. The KDE Applications page provides links to source code and bug reporting, and lists a community discussion forum for help. KDE's software privacy policy says its software generally does not transmit information from users' devices unless a user takes an explicit action. KDE e.V., a registered non-profit, represents the KDE Community in legal and financial matters.
