+<h4>THRESHOLD OPTION:</h4>
+<blockquote>
+There are three options available:
+<ul>
+<li><b>Standard options window (lineart)</b></li>
+</ul>
+<blockquote>
+The threshold option is kept untouched. If the backend makes
+available a "threshold" option you find it in the standard or advanced
+options window. You have to do a new preview scan to see changes of the
+threshold value.
+</blockquote>
+
+<ul>
+<li><b>XSane main window (lineart)</b></li>
+</ul>
+<blockquote>
+If the backend makes available a "threshold" option it is moved
+to the main window. The value range is normalized (see
+<i>THRESHOLD MINIMUM, MAXIMUM, MULTIPLIER, OFFSET</i>).
+You have to do a new preview scan to see changes of the threshold value.
+</blockquote>
+
+<ul>
+<li><b>XSane main window (grayscale->lineart)</b></li>
+</ul>
+<blockquote>
+If the backend makes available a "threshold" option it is moved
+to the main window. The preview scan is done in grayscale mode (see
+<i>NAME OF GRAYSCALE SCANMODE</i>) and transformed to black/white. Changes
+of the threshold value are visible in the preview window without a new preview
+scan. The value range of the threshold option is normalized (see
+<i>THRESHOLD MINIMUM, MAXIMUM, MULTIPLIER, OFFSET</i>).
+</blockquote>
+</blockquote>
+</blockquote>
+
+<h4>THRESHOLD MINIMUM, MAXIMUM, MULTIPLIER, OFFSET:</h4>
+<blockquote>
+These values are used to make the threshold function of the
+backends work the same way XSane does handle it. This is:
+<b>the threshold value defines the brightness level in % that is needed
+to get a white point. A value of 0% creates a totally white image, a value
+of 100% creates a totally black image.</b>
+<br>
+If the threshold function of the backend does not cover the full range
+(0-100% = white...black), you can reduce the range with the values MINIMUM
+and MAXIMUM. If the backend defines another value range (e.g 0-255 ) you
+have to enter a MULTIPLIER (2.55 for rang 0-255), with the OFFSET value
+you can shift the range linear.
+<br>
+<br>
+<b>The calculation is:</b>
+<blockquote>
+<b>backend_threshold = OFFSET + MULTIPLIER * xsane_threshold</b>
+</blockquote>
+<b>where the user can select xsane_threshold in the range from MINIMUM to MAXIMUM.</b>
+</blockquote>
+
+<h4>NAME OF GRAYSCALE SCANMODE:</h4>
+<blockquote>
+If you want to do a grayscale previewscan when lineart scanmode
+is selected, you have to tell xsane the name of the grayscale mode. This
+is because the scanmode is defined by the backend and differen backends
+may use different names. You have to enter the original name (not translated)
+case sensitive (take a look at the scanmode selection menu in the xsane
+main window).
+<br>
+The name should be something like
+<blockquote>
+<b><i>Gray</i></b>
