Hi I'm just starting out with ImageEn. My project is scanning from an ADF scanner, Epson DS570W. I will be providing the file name and path and hopefully scanning straight to a folder. single pages and multi-page documents (invoices)
Can anyone give some pointers to demos that would be most useful for this. I have been looking through them, but there's a lot of them.
Also is the book worth buying, does it cover more than the demos. |

Hi
For acquisition demos, either look at Demos\ImageAcquisition\Twain\TwainDemo.dpr for a pure Twain scanning or Demos\ImageAcquisition\AllAcquire\AllAcquire.dpr if you want to support both Twain and WIA scanners.
The book is very detailed and written by Bill Miller, a long time ImageEn user who you will see a lot of on this forum. It also includes many more demos.

Hi Nigel I've been looking at those, All Acquire scans all the documents and shows them, but how do I save them as a single pdf file? I found some save examples for ImageENView but not ImageENMView
Thanks Chris |

Hi Nigel I tried that first, first I put it at the end of the Acquire button event, then I put it on it's own button event. I get an error "Cannot create file"D:\test.pdf", The Device is not ready" I missing something... Regards Chris |

ok, got a bit further. Bill sent me an example over that used a save to picture dialogue. this works if I save the file as a tiff, what do I need to save it as a pdf? |

Add this filter string to the SavePictureDialog.Filter in the IDE: All (*.pdf;*.gif;*.png;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.bmp;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.gif;*.png;*.ico;*.emf;*.wmf;*.tif;*.tiff)|*.pdf;*.gif;*.png;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.bmp;*.ico;*.tif;*.tiff|Adobe PDF (*.pdf)|*.pdf|GIF Image (*.gif)|*.gif|Portable Network Graphics (*.png)|*.png|JPEG Image File (*.jpg)|*.jpg|JPEG Image File (*.jpeg)|*.jpeg|Bitmaps (*.bmp)|*.bmp|Icons (*.ico)|*.ico|TIFF Images (*.tif)|*.tif|TIFF Images (*.tiff)|*.tiff
