Hello,
NAPS2 is a good promising app, but I can't use it for two basic reasons:

(1) In my organisation, we need to save files in TIF format with "none" compression (for digital preservation). But NAPS2 only allows to save the TIF files with LZW compression.

(2) NAPS2 saves TIF files as multipage TIF, with no option for saving the files produced in a batch scan as single files. We need single files to attach each file in single records of a database.

Another feature needed in my opinion to improve the workflow of NAPS2: the corrections of Preview window should apply on the same Preview window, i.e. not in another new window for each correction tool. In particular for the crop tool, I propose the view of selection of the Gimp style; and a magnifying glass for fine selection as Xsane frontend.

Sorry for my English, many thanks, good work.

    For (2), does the "Save to multiple files / One file per page" option work (in the Batch Scan window)?

    I've added options for (1) and (2) under Image Settings (in the Save Images menu) in the latest version (5.8.0).
