Functions

CFM TWAIN offers a multitude of adjustment capabilities to obtain scan results meeting the user’s requirements.

The descriptive information in this help is based on examples. CFM TWAIN as furnished may deviate in a number of aspects. Please note that the respective scanner or scanner drivers always affect the available parameters, functions and options. If these are found to be unsupported by the relevant scanner or currently set mode they can not be activated.

You can select adjustments in different ways:
Direct selection in pulldown menus and check boxes or input in dialog boxes of the user interface. Functions and options are available via register cards.

If you need further information about icons, dialog boxes or a pulldown menu, move the mouse cursor to the relevant position. The name will be displayed on the monitor, and in the status line on the far left hand side on the user interface, additional information about the function can be read, or the status of a started scan is displayed.

Some applications start a TWAIN module in hidden mode (without User Interface-Interaction) or can be set to this mode, particularly DIM or OCR programs. In this case the CFM TWAIN driver is controlled from the respective application. Note that not all applications are capable of doing this correctly. If necessary, you have to change settings for the TWAIN module in another application or scan on "open" mode again.

Adjustment capabilities of CFM TWAIN are described under the corresponding headword.
