I am having a little bit of trouble with one of my favourite pieces of open source software. I had installed Gscan2PDF (1.0.4) from the Software Centre on my 13.10 64bit machine (clean install from 13.04 & Back ups from Deja Dup). However, Gscan2PDF will not scan, I have to scan using simple scan then open the PDF to OCR it with Gscan2PDF. That is not ideal but not a deal breaker, the main issue for me is that when I select to OCR, Tesseract is not an option. I have made sure Tesseract-English is installed, but only GOCR & Cuneiform are the only options.

Please can anyone help me to get Gscan2PDF to working like it should?

Thank you for your time and answers.

Solved both problems by installing Gscan2PDF 1.2.0.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jeffreyratcliffe/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gscan2pdf
