ScanTailor Advanced for Mac 1.2.1-mac.1
First Mac-port release based on upstream 1.2.1, with Mac-port revision 1.
Requirements
- Apple Silicon (arm64) only
- macOS 27.0 or later — the executable and several bundled dependencies require it.
- No Homebrew, Wine, or Rosetta required.
Install
Download ScanTailor-Advanced-Mac-1.2.1-mac.1-arm64.zip, unzip it, and move
ScanTailor Advanced for Mac.app to Applications.
The app is signed with Developer ID Application: Samuel Collins (KYS7QZNSJH),
uses hardened runtime, and is Apple-notarized with the ticket stapled.
Gatekeeper verification reports accepted / Notarized Developer ID.

Mac-port changes
- Native arm64 app bundle with Qt frameworks and plugins.
- Upstream artwork packaged as a Retina-capable macOS app icon.
- Mac-specific app and window names, retaining existing settings identifiers.
- Rebuilds overwrite bundled Qt libraries to avoid stale-library launch crashes.
- Excluded unused PDF and virtual-keyboard plugins with unresolved dependencies.
Provenance
Original project: https://github.com/4lex4/scantailor-advanced
Immediate upstream: https://github.com/ScanTailor-Advanced/scantailor-advanced
This port began at immediate-upstream commit 5eaac18 (v1.2.1).
It is an independent Mac port, not an official upstream macOS release.
Upstream copyright notices and GPLv3 licensing are retained.
The application reports 1.2.1-mac.1; Apple's bundle metadata uses marketing
version 1.2.1 and build 1.2.1.1.
Validation and limitations
- Verified all 68 bundled Mach-O binaries are arm64 with their non-system dependencies present.
- Verified Developer ID signatures, Apple notarization, and stapled ticket.
- Signed app launch tested locally.
- Full image-processing regression testing and clean-machine testing remain outstanding.
- Older macOS versions, Intel, and universal builds are not supported by this artifact.
