Agree with @DrKay:
(1) It would be nice if the crop used by Simple Scan was from the setting at "Document > Preferences > Page Size". (As is, I don't see that this setting does anything at least with my HP scanner.)
(2) The initial crop position is also an issue. Simple Scan centers the crop selected via "Page > Crop" which is the wrong position for my HP scanner for which the position should be top / left since that is how the hardware is intended to be used in flatbed mode and that is the position when the feeder is used. Perhaps "crop position" should be another choice at "Document > Preferences".
My daughter just used Simple Scan for the first time and I had to walk her through these two items. Sure she would have figured it out on her own after scanning the same document a few times and exploring the settings but I don't think that is the point of "Simple Scan".
