- COMPU-COPIER 2.0
-
- a simple Copier for your Computer
-
-
- This program allows you to use your computer, scanner and printer to make
- copies of sheets of paper. Version 2.0 replaces Version 1.0. CCopier is now
- faster.
-
- Requirements: You need a flatbed-scanner with TWAIN-interface and a graphics
- printer.
-
- Installation: Simply copy the program sc.exe scprn.exe and eztwain.dll
- into a directory of your hardisk.
-
- To make a copy of a sheet of paper, start copier.exe, press the 'Copy'
- button, choose 'black-white' or 'LineArt' in the TWAIN-dialog, set the
- size of the scan area to the whole papersize and press the 'scan' button.
- The copy will be printed immediately.
- Left of the copy button you can choose the position of the copy on the paper.
- The position 'left top corner' places the copy at the same position as
- in the scanner. Due to the borders all printers have, the edges may not
- be printed.
- The options 'Fast copy' and 'Auto scale' should normally be checked. 'Fast
- copy' let the printer make the multiple copies and 'Auto scale' take care of
- the right size of the copy depending on the resolution ratio of the scanner
- and the printer.
-
- This program is written in Borland Delphi and demonstrates the use of the
- eztwain.dll (eztwain.pas). The source of EZTWAIN 'Easy TWAIN library' is
- available from ftp://ftp.caere.com/pub/twain .
- To use the source code first you have to install the DebugBox-Component
- located in debugbox.pas and the Delphi-Translator in dtrans.pas.
- If the DebugBox is activated, you will get a logfile (sc.log) too.
-
- known bugs:
- - if the scanner doesn't deliver resolution information, the copy
- may not have the same size as the original (at 100% user scale)
-
- history:
