v1.3.1
3fc2267

New in 1.3.1

  • No Homebrew installation required. The app now includes SANE, its scanner backends and the libraries needed for scanning.
  • Native PDF creation: PDFs are created directly with macOS frameworks. ImageMagick is no longer required.
  • Native text recognition: Apple's on-device Vision framework adds a searchable text layer in German and English. ocrmypdf, Tesseract and additional language packs are no longer required. If recognition fails, all scanned images are still saved.
  • Export as PDF, PNG, JPEG or TIFF using the Create ("Erstellen") action. PDF and TIFF collect all pages in one file; PNG and JPEG save one image per page.
  • Scanner components ship with their licenses, matching source archives and rebuild instructions.

Updating

From SaneScan 1.1 or later, choose SaneScan → Check for Updates… ("Nach Updates suchen …"). Save or export any open scans before the update restarts the app.

For a first installation, download SaneScan-1.3.1.dmg, open it and drag SaneScan into Applications. Requires macOS 14 or newer on Apple Silicon. No separate command line tools are needed. Scanner support depends on the included SANE backends; some models require vendor firmware or custom configuration.

See the README and scanner runtime documentation for details.
