Consider installing Photoshop (Windows version) in Linux by using Wine (
www.winehq.com).
Having used the Photoshop LE edition bundled with my scan, I'd say you won't
have any trouble (at least if your PC is powerful enough).
The only regret was that I've not managed to access the scan this way
through the TWAIN drivers provided by the vendor. Of course, using it
natively under Linux wasn't a problem.
