  Hi mick
  Thank you for your reply.
  Can you give me some guidelines regarding storage of the file.
  Bcos byte format read from API is not char *(or any other standard type) but
  SANE_bye.
  What should I do for those read bytes?

  Thanks again for your help.

  Sorry Shailendra ,

  The answer to your question is that SANE does not support storage of
  specific file formats. The image is returned from the scanner in the
  format specified in the SANE standard. If you wish to save the image in
  another format then you are responsible for handling this.
