68 VISIONEER PATRIOT 430 SCANNER USER’S GUIDE
Scanning from the
TWAIN Interface
You can scan from any TWAIN scanning application instead of scanning
from the OneTouch buttons on your scanner or the OneTouch button
panel.
A Note About Your Scanner and the TWAIN standard: TWAIN is a widely
recognized procedure that software applications use to receive images from
scanners, digital cameras, and other digital devices. Because the TWAIN interface
is essentially the same regardless of the software you use to open it, you can still use
the instructions in this User’s Guide for scanning with your Visioneer Patriot 430
scanner. Please refer to an application’s user guide for the appropriate steps to open
the TWAIN Interface for your scanner.
For instructions on how to use the PaperPort software press F1 on your keyboard
when the PaperPort software is open, or refer to the PaperPort User’s Guide on the
installation CD.
BASIC STEPS TO OPEN THE TWAIN INTERFACE
Each TWAIN-compliant software application has its own specific steps to open the
TWAIN interface, but the basic process is the same for most of them.
1. Open an application that is TWAIN-compliant.
2. Use the application’s command that opens the TWAIN interface.
For example, in PaperPort click on the Scan button then choose TWAIN:
Visioneer Patriot 430 when prompted. Also, many Microsoft Office
applications can access the TWAIN interface from the Insert menu, by
choosing Picture then From Scanner or Camera. Select Visioneer Patriot 430
from the drop-down menu.
3. The TWAIN Interface will open.
