Bug Description
Binary package hint: gscan2pdf
gscan2pdf-0.9.21 will some generate blank pdf pages where there should be a scanned page.
Steps to reproduce:
(1) Scan a few pages into gscan2pdf
(2) See that pages scanned in and looking good
(3) Now choose "Save as PDF" button
(4) Chose any form of compression other that "None"
(5) Open the generated PDF with evince or acroread and some pages may be blank
This is intermittent -- Sometimes I will scan the exact same pages and go through the same process over again and it will work.
Now that I have upgraded to 8.04 beta it seems to will always work when I choose Compression: "None". Before, with 7.04, it would never give blank pages with the "None" option, but sometimes the output from my black and white scan would be inverted (e.g. the page was black and the text was white)

Did this occur with 7.04 as well? I have never seen this, and I am using 7.10.
There have been issues with black/white reversal, but they were
reproducible, and due to a bug in imagemagick.
