Scan Tailor and JPEG problem
Posted: 15 Jan 2012, 07:11
Hello all!
I'm having a strange problem, and I'm hoping someone might be able to tell me what's going on. I wanted to install Scan Tailor on a slightly older computer that I have - I've been using Scan Tailor on my somewhat newer computer with no problems at all, but since I'm doing rather a lot of scanning and OCR work for my doctoral research, I wanted to free up the newer computer for OCR and be able to run both processes at the same time. The problem is, Scan Tailor can't seem to load/open JPEGs on the older computer - I just get the message saying 'unable to load this image' (or something like that) when I try to start a project. The odd thing is, it loads TIF files fine, the ones that I'd previously processed with Scan Tailor on the other computer. Both computers have the same OS (Windows XP), and I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Scan Tailor a few times, to no avail. Does anyone know what might be going on here? I'm most grateful for any help or advice!
