<i>&gt; The rulers and a big red arrow both correspond to this. On one of the HP</i><br>
<i>&gt; scanners here that I looked at, the origin in is the back right side (but</i><br>
<i>&gt; the element is stored in the back also).</i><br>
<i>&gt; Now to the actual question.. I noticed in section 4.5.2 of the SANE</i><br>
<i>&gt; Project docs that the origin is specified as the back left corner.I have</i><br>
<i>&gt; no problem with converting scanning co-ordinates or changing bits around</i><br>
<i>&gt; for BW/Halftone scans, but I'm wondering if this should be somehow</i><br>
<i>&gt; corellated (sp?) to where the light element and CCD array start from.</i><br>
Yes. It is intendend as it is normally used with the specific type of scanner.<br>
<p>
The SANE-coordinates are meant as correlated with the picture you want to<br>
scan. The hardware of most scanners will "suggest" an efficient way of<br>
doing it. I.e. the logical top-left of the picture you scan should be<br>
positioned in a way that it is in the same place on a "full-scan" regardless<br>
of how big the picture is.<br>
<p>
This normally means that the "top" should be oriented at the edge near the <br>
CCD-home-position and "left" should touch the corresponding border ...<br>
<p>
I.e. I would consider your scanner to be just a "turned round" version of<br>
the HP one (or one with the lid attached on the other side) and not try<br>
to "soft-emulate" another hardware-layout.<br>
