7.0b1
Changes in 7.0b1:
- Most NAPS2 code has been rewritten. Things should mostly look the same but under the hood there are many differences.
- Added Mac support
- Supports macOS 10.15 and later
- The Universal download should work for all users. Or you can use the Intel/Apple Silicon downloads for a smaller download/install size if you know which one your Mac has.
- NAPS2 on Mac bundles SANE drivers for USB scanners, allowing supported scanners to be used even on new M1/M2 Macs (which normally wouldn't work without manufacturer-provided drivers)
- Added native Linux support
- Requires Flatpak for installation (https://flatpak.org/setup/)
- Mono is no longer required
- The UI should now feel like a native Linux app
- Much better performance and reliability
- TWAIN support has been reworked
- Some lifecycle-related issues should hopefully be fixed (e.g. only being able to scan once)
- With "Use predefined settings", TWAIN now uses the built-in NAPS2 progress window, which allows multitasking
- TWAIN UI should no longer be visible in console and batch mode
- TWAIN should also now support scanning larger images (e.g. 1200dpi) without out-of-memory issues
- Upgraded Tesseract to 5.2.0 for OCR
- Up to 30% faster OCR performance
- Tesseract is now bundled with the NAPS2 download, so no extra download is required (though you still need to download language data if you don't already have it).
- PDF import and export have been rewritten to leverage Pdfium
- This means better support for importing different kinds of PDFs
- In some cases this means much faster import/export
- Pdfium is bundled with the NAPS2 download so there is no longer an extra download needed to import non-NAPS2 PDFs
- New Crop UI
- Minor tweaks to blank page detection
- Image list tweaks
- Selected images appear with just a blue border
- Spacing has been optimized
- New automatic image correction functionality (work in progress)
- "Document Correction" under the Image menu
- Automatic fixing of color calibration, noise, skew, and other common scanning issues
- Eventually this will be integrated into profiles
- JPEG2000 support for importing/saving images (Mac only for now)
- Dropped support for rarely-used image file formats (.emf, .exif, .gif)
- Please request if you want this back
- NAPS2 on Windows now requires .NET Framework 4.6.2
- This means no more support for Windows XP
- Windows 7 SP1 is now the minimum requirement
- The 64-bit Windows install location is now "Program Files" instead of "Program Files (x86)"
- The MSI installer now has separate 64-bit and 32-bit downloads
- The AppData format for config.xml and Tesseract files has changed (will be automatically migrated)
- Improved icon quality
- Translations have been moved to Crowdin
- Various performance and reliability improvements
- Bug fixes

6.0b1
- Beta feedback thread: https://sourceforge.net/p/naps2/discussion/general/thread/8776c818/
- Linux support (download one of the portable archives - currently experimental, please give feedback!)
-- Requires Mono (5.17+ preferably), see https://www.naps2.com/doc-getting-started.html#system-requirements - Added an automatic update check
-- Opt in from the About window
-- Not available if installed from the MSI - New OCR version, significantly more accurate in many cases
-- The OCR button will prompt to update. This can be disabled with the NoUpdatePrompt flag in appsettings.xml
-- Not supported on Windows XP (will use the older version instead)
-- You can choose between multiple modes: Fast (recommended), Best (slow), and Legacy (to simulate the older version) - Added the ability to choose an email provider
-- When you first click Email PDF, you will be prompted to choose. Afterwards use Email Settings to change
-- Switch between installed clients (Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.)
-- Webmail integration for Gmail and Outlook Web Access - Added support for Unicode in email attachment names

- Added the ability to run most operations in the background for multitasking
- Improved performance with very large images
- Substantially reduced installation footprint and portable zip size
- Minimized TWAIN UI in console and batch mode
- NAPS2 installers are now signed
-- This should eventually help remove SmartScreen notifications - NAPS2 will now run in 64-bit mode on compatible systems
-- If you have a 64-bit system, NAPS2 will better handle memory-intensive operations
-- If you downloaded the add-on to open any PDF (gsdll32.dll), you may need to re-download the 64-bit version - Improved documentation and usability for developers (see https://www.naps2.com/doc-dev-onboarding.html)
