Re: Most Efficient Workflow / Process Available Currently
Since I haven't updated this post lately, and because I've been working on the software side of this workflow a *lot* lately, it now seems to me that the fastest and easiest way to convert your images to e-books (i.e. PDF using Scantailor and ABBYY FineReader) is ... (sorry, shameless plug follows) ...

Re: Building CLI branch on Windows
If you, like me, couldn't find the Scan Tailor Dependencies.sln file, that's because you, Windows user, probably chose MinGW Makefiles instead of Visual Studio 9 2008 as the README suggests:
[VC++]
Select your version of Visual C++ (Visual Studio) instead of "MinGW Makefiles"

Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: Scan Tailor Command Line Interface
pejuko, Again, awesome software. Another question though... I'm successfully running scantailor-cli.exe 350 times (once per image), but some pages are auto-detected as just the title of the work (e.g. instead of 8.5" x 11" the image is 3" by 2" saying 'CHAPTER 1'), so ABBYY mista...

Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: Scan Tailor Command Line Interface
pejuko, I'd like to try your scantailor-cli input enhancements (http://scantailor.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=scantailor/scantailor;a=commit;h=49bb5c08c69cd822b1287dcb39ddee7754b44754) (committed 5 days ago) but I don't see a windows binary (maybe I'm mistaken?).

Re: Framework: DIY E-Book Creator
Sorry for the delay in responding. I have uploaded the git source: http://code.google.com/p/diy-ebook-creator/ Anonymous2 Thanks for the kudos.
