queXF 1.18.1 has been released today

A major new feature is the processing forms as greyscale/grayscale for better management of dithering. This means queXF will process forms scanned as greyscale/grayscale (256 shades) just as well (in some cases better) than forms scanned as monochrome (1 bit). You may need to alter the IMAGE_THRESHOLD configuration item to determine the monochrome conversion cutoff.

Bug fixes relating to banding (default output width of a text field, and box detection) and verification (UTF-8 encoding) have been resolved.

queXF 1.18.0 has been released today on Sourceforge

Multiple bug fixes and better handling of scanned pages of varying sizes. This release makes the "Page setup" feature optional instead of required. In most cases - this is ideal as using automatic edge detection works better on differing page sizes.
