Hi,

Can a 64-bit scanning application use 32-bit drivers ?

The thing is that many scanners, especially if they are not very new, may either not have a 64-bit driver at all or have it in WIA format but with reduced capabilities (I've encountered this more than once).

No, 64bit applications must use 64bit drivers. The only other option is for a 64bit app to use a 32bit DLL to communicate with 32bit drivers.

Is it possible to do this within ImageEn ?

Hi

Yes, you could certainly create a 32bit scanning DLL with ImageEn.
