acquire to abend

Post by gordon94116 »

Hi,
i've just installed xnview 1.97 on windows xp/home.
it recognizes my brother mfc4420c scanner.
when i did acquire to, i selected multipages, i selected to pdf, it scans my document and abends.
i get a windows message asking me to select the debugger.
was i supposed to install something else, besides the standard xnview 1.97?
do i need xconvert?
thx

It's a known issue: XnView abends on scanning

Adding the line newMethod=1 to the [Scan] section of my xnview.ini did the trick for me and my Samsung SCX-4100:
xnview.ini wrote:

Code: Select all

[Scan]
Digit=0
Directory=X:\Temp\
FileName=scan_
FormatName=pdf
Multi=1
Page=0
Reverse=0
StartIndex=1
Subfolder=0
newMethod=1
