Title:
  Scanning documents for archival

Status in Simple Scan:
  New

Bug description:
  I want to scan personal documents for archival, but I don't feel that
  the current settings allow me to produce scans which are a good
  compromise between file size & quality.

  I have tried the text mode scan and while the images are probably good
  for OCR, they do not reproduce graphics & non-black and white text
  very well. And while photo mode scans look great, they take up too
  much space for archival purposes.

  Of course, file size & quality requirements are subjective, so I will
  include a few attachments to show the result I get from text mode, and
  the result I want to achieve.

  What Simple scan gets me:
  Simple scan results
  text mode, 300dpi
  ss_text_300dpi.jpg

  What I would like to achieve:
  Image Scan! For Linux (Epson scanner software),
  Black and White Document mode, 300dpi
  isfl_b&w_document_300dpi.jpg
