I have got the same problem here :

$ cat /etc/issue
Fedora release 14 (Laughlin)
Kernel \r on an \m (\l)

$ rpm -qa simple-scan
simple-scan-2.31.91-1.fc14.x86_64

$ evince simplescan.pdf 
Error (89954): Unknown operator ',559998'
Error (89969): Unknown operator ',919983'
Error (89980): Too few (2) args to 'cm' operator
Error (89954): Unknown operator ',559998'

This bug seems to be solved in the 2.32.0.1 release of simple-scan https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+source/simple-scan/+bug/644734.

Is an update for this package is planned?

Hi,
the 2.32.0.1 version of simple-scan is built for fedora15, according to koji. Could we have an update for fedora14, please...
Thanks.

Comment 3 tom-ipp 2010-12-18 17:54:43 UTC
Hi again,
there is a simple workaround:
from simple-scan one can print and select file type pdf.
-> the file is then ok for me.

Comment 4 Iván Jiménez 2011-01-20 02:25:27 UTC
Could the 2.32.0.1 version be submitted as an update for f14? the package from koji works fine.
