So how do I release 19 builds consisting of 119 Mbytes, for 11 operating systems - Windows 圆4, Windows x32, Windows ARM32, Windows ARM64, macOS x32, macOS 圆4, macOS a64 (universal Intel/ARM), Linux x32, Linux 圆4, Linux ARM32 and Linux ARM64? Each build supports more than 6500 scanners and 29 languages. I’ve even re-released VueScan (all 19 builds) a few times from an airport lounge – it’s that easy. This means I can re-release VueScan from everything I carry in my briefcase (on the right in this picture). I build the Linux ARM versions on the Raspberry Pi. ![]() The MacBook Pro runs Parallels with three virtual machines – Windows 10, Ubuntu Linux x32 and Ubuntu Linux 圆4. I use a BDi motorized stand-up desk and a Herman Miller Aeron chair, with another BDi desk for lots of extra workspace. ![]() I have a 1 Gbit/s fiber optic Ethernet connection to the internet (which is new for me – David has had this for years – I love it). I only use two computers to develop, build and test VueScan – an Intel MacBook Pro and a Raspberry Pi 4 (that I built myself), all using a single 32 inch LG 4K monitor, an Apple Magic keyboard and an Apple Magic mouse. Here’s a recent picture of my desk, while I was working with a half-dozen Genesys Logic scanners for VueScan 9.7.57: It’s been a fun project and allowed me to travel to many countries over the years.Īll this does result in a cluttered desk. My latest projects are extracting arabinogalactan from larch wood chips and growing protein for animal feed on straw. Besides VueScan, I also work on developing technologies and patents for biotechnology and have been granted dozens of patents in many countries. Like my son David, I have many interests and projects, but for both of us, VueScan is our main project. Steve Jobs, Samuel Johnson, Mark Twain and Thomas Edison also had famously cluttered desks. Fixed problems with some Genesys Logic scanners (especially Canon LiDE scanners)Ī day in the life of Ed Hamrick – Developer of VueScanĪlbert Einstein once said “If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?”.Fixed problem with preview disappearing after a scan.Improved scan speed and image quality with some Genesys Logic scanners.Tripled black/white flatbed scan speed on Canon 8400F and Canon 8600F.Fixed problem with Xerox WorkCentre and VersaLink scanners.Fixed problems with some Genesys Logic scanners.Improved scan speed with most Genesys Logic scanners.Plustek OpticFilm scanners are now more than twice as fast with VueScan as with other programs.Since the last newsletter, we’ve released VueScan 9.7.57 and 9.7.56. Wherever are you in world, please continue to take care and be safe. Please remember you can contact us for technical support (we need a Problem Report) and any general enquiries, suggestions or feedback here We appreciate the time you take to contact us and one of us will reply to every email we receive. Not only are they vital to us in planning product updates, but learning about your scanning projects is fascinating and we want to thank you for sharing them with us. Please continue to email us with your comments, product suggestions and user stories. We’ve said many times that we are a small company and now you can see this for yourself! Our other developer is David Hamrick – Ed’s son – who has a tidier office. See below for a picture of the office of Ed Hamrick – one of the developers of VueScan. However, we are happy to report that development of VueScan continues as always, and this month we thought you might like to see where all the ‘VueScan action’ takes place and how we develop, build and test VueScan. We can’t quite believe that we are nearly halfway through the year, but we live in unusual times (as we all know) and all of us are constantly waiting for news updates on a global basis. ![]()
