Mac software similar to Autosplitter for Windows?

Epson scanner software allows you to select multiple areas on the scanner to scan to unique files.

Also... open Image Capture in you Applications folder to see if it already does what you want... I cannot check right now since I am away from home:

Well everyone has to decide on their own workflow but for me I like to use the tool that is best suited for the task.

So in this case I'd let the scanner break the items into multiple files and then do the cropping and straightening in Aperture, it will do a better job and give you more options.

Anf just to be clear Image Capture will allow you to crop the images before you scan them, but I'd still rather do that in Aperture.

Writing a program to do what you want is not something a 'Mac enthusiast' is likely able to do.

An experienced developer could certainly do this but not unless the demand is great enough to bother.

As others have pointed out, there are existing applications that can do the job already.

Does Image Capture work with yoru scanner?

If it does it will scan seperate items on the bed into seperate files if you select Detect Seperate Items

Not aware of any standalone app that does this. In my experience most scanner software is able to do this natively (at least the multiple photos per scan bit)

What are you using to scan?

Adobe Photoshop Elements will do this and a lot more, too. You can probably create an action to do it automagically.

As I said, PSE can probably create an action to do exactly this.
