Hi,
I just spent an hour scanning in some documents. First, the OCR doesn't work. I then discovered that files saved in the default format (.pnm) in X-Sane scan program can't be opened by either of the default programs provided with Ubuntu. Nor will they work with Open Office Draw.
Any suggestions anyone?

Have you tried changing the file extension before you scan?
