- I think the above proposal won't help, because the TWAIN-Interface is a
- PC-Scanner-Language. The ADPRO-Driver doesn't understand it ! As far as I know
- there's only one AMIGA programm that's able to communicate in the
- TWAIN-Standard. It's a commercial program in Germany, I don't
- know if it's available elsewhere. It's called SCANQUIX.
- What's more, it's a lot cheaper than the ADPRO-Driver. In Germany it costs
- around DM 150,-.
-
- Hope this will help.
