Dear friends,
how does it come that the mode parameter supplied to scanimage changes
the number of row or columns in the produced image?

# scanimage --mode binary -x 10mm -y 20mm |pnmfile
stdin: PBM raw, 24 by 39
# scanimage --mode gray -x 10mm -y 20mm |pnmfile
stdin: PGM raw, 19 by 39  maxval 255
