 Posted: Tue Jan 23, 2007 12:42 am Post subject: "Scan to" my application |
 |
|
Hello,
I´m currently writing an office application using Microsoft .Net which
has to process texts which the users usually obtain using the
OCR-function of the scanner.
The scanner installed is a HP Scanjet 7650 and when I push one of its
buttons, the HP-Software window appears showing a list of applications
which I can select for receiving the scanned image or text. Word and
Wordpad appear there, and some image processing applications.
I would like my application to also appear in that list, but I have no
idea how to do that.
Is this list managed as a part of the TWAIN-interface, does it have
something to do with the WIA (Windows Image Aquisition API) or is it a
piece of HP-Software?
I hope somebody has an idea of how to manipulate this list.
Thanks and Greetings,
Michael |

Hi Michael.
I have absolutely no idea :)
I do have a thought, though, and a likely place for you to begin
looking. I'll betcha there's a list of available to: places in
the registry that you'll have to add your own to.
Take care.

Hi!
You need to register your application using "Wia.DeviceManager"
object.
Take a look at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms630722.aspx
and http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms630826.aspx#SharedSample030.
I'm developing a similiar tool and I need to convert the scanned
documents to pdf (multipage). If you have any clue about it please
share with me.
Good luck,
