PDF

is there a way to get it to scan to a pdf? or would that have to be implemented in a different manner entirely?

Yup

Install "imagemagick" and use "$ convert IMAGE.JPG OUTPUT.PDF" to create a pdf file. There are more command line options to add multiple pages and define page sizes as well.
I haven't had time yet to add this feature.

re: pdf

imagemagick is NOT the way to go,

sane is supposed to have OCR-like features, and also some linux software already support these feature to create better pdf files...

so rather than to 'snapshot' your scan into a pdf you should 'create' the pdf instead..

im not entirely sure what libs are neaded for it, but im pretty sure imagemagick is not one of them...

if you use ocr libs you can also later select and coppy text from your pdf ... witch is in my opinion allways preferable..
