I would like to see a good twain example if one is available.  I have tried many different aspects of doing things and have gotten different results with each one.  If I use the fast twain modules, all of my settings seem to work and are applied to the scanner, but I get two scanned images versus one.  If I try to use the standard acquire modules, I cannot get all of my settings to update correctly to the twain session.  So I even tried making the scan interface available, then immediately after the scan completes, save the template.  Then upon trying to use the template, I get an error after loading the template and calling the acquire method without showing the user interface, stating that my images have been removed from the auto sheet feeder in the scanner...which I was not even using....and it aborts.  So is there an example out there which shows how to update multiple pieces of a twain session like DPI, transfer file information, and bits per pixel all in the same application?  I can find how to do these separately, but when I incorporate them all, like I stated, I get multiple images at the end versus one image.  Thanks.

Hello,

We have different samples that show how to use the different Twain settings.
The details depend on the programming interface (COM, API, DotNet, Etc.)?

However, if you are using COM programming interface, please refer to the following samples and tutorials in the "LEADTOOLS Twain COM Help":
- AcquireMulti Example for Visual Basic
- Acquiring an Image (Visual Basic)
- Using the Fast TWAIN Feature (Visual Basic)
- Get a Fast Twain Scan from a Scanner (Visual Basic)
- Twain Duplex (Visual Basic)

If you need a complete sample code that shows the different twain features, please refer to the LEADTOOLS Twain demos that come with the toolkit.

Thanks,
Maen Badwan

Sorry. I should have been more descriptive.  We are using v14.5 and are building classes in C# which wrap the Leadtools objects.  I cannot find any .Net example (VB or C#) that sets the DPI, sets the bits per pixel, and sets the file transfer properties on one scan method.  I found places where they are described independently...and they seem to work independently, but when I put them together I get very strange behavior such as a scan occurring twice.  Could you provide some sample code which performs all three of these tasks?  The concept seems extremely simple, but yet, the Leadtools objects are not working as expected.  I would assume that means I am setting things out of order or something.  Here is a simple method I was trying to implement.  I could not get the capabilities to work so I tried the TwainImageResolution object instead.  Also, I would need instructions for control on how to handle images for multipage scans...I think all of that ties together with the fact that I get multiple pages when scanning one page with the multipage parameter set to false.

try

{

if(optionalTwainSourceName != "" && optionalTwainSourceName != null)

{

// Set twain device based on what was passed in.

_twSession.SetAcquireSourceName(optionalTwainSourceName);

}

else

{

// No option sent, default to first twain device.

_twSession.SetAcquireSourceName(_twSrcInfo[0].Name);

}

// _twSession.GetProperties();

// TwainCapability tcDPI = new TwainCapability();

// tcDPI.Information.ContainerType = TwainContainerType.OneValue;

// tcDPI.Information.Type = TwainCapabilityType.ImageXResolution;

// tcDPI.OneValue.ItemType = TwainItemType.Uint16;

// tcDPI.OneValue.Value = _dpi;

// _twSession.SetCapability(tcDPI,TwainSetCapabilityMode.Set);

// tcDPI.Information.ContainerType = TwainContainerType.OneValue;

// tcDPI.Information.Type = TwainCapabilityType.ImageYResolution;

// tcDPI.OneValue.ItemType = TwainItemType.Uint16;

// tcDPI.OneValue.Value = _dpi;

// _twSession.SetCapability(tcDPI,TwainSetCapabilityMode.Set);

// _twSession.SetProperties();

_returnFile = _imageDir + System.Guid.NewGuid() + ".tif";

_twSession.FastTransferMechanism = TwainTransferMechanism.File;

_twSession.FastImageFormat = RasterImageFormat.Tif;

_twSession.FastBitsPerPixel = 1;

_twSession.FastBufferSize = 0;

_twSession.FastUsePreferredBufferSize = true;

_twSession.EnableAcquireMultiPageEvent = false;

_twSession.GetProperties();

TwainImageResolution tir = new TwainImageResolution();

tir.BitsPerPixel = 1;

tir.HorizontalResolution = _dpi;

tir.VerticalResolution = _dpi;

tir.Unit = (int)TwainCapabilityValue.UnitInches;

_twSession.ImageResolution = tir;

_twSession.SetProperties();

_twSession.AcquireFast(_returnFile, ((_showTwainInterface == true) ? TwainFastUserInterfaceFlags.Show : TwainFastUserInterfaceFlags.None), _multiPage);

Hello,

I am attaching a small DotNet Twain C# v14.5 project that shows how to use the above properties and methods with the twain session object.
Please check the project and let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for the app, but it does not run for me.  I get the following.  I tried commenting the various properties being set to narrow it down, but the error still occurs.  Any ideas?

I found the line it was popping on.

twnSession.FastTransferMechanism = TwainTransferMechanism.Memory

I wonder why my system would die on this?

Hello,

About the project, I checked the project before sending it. I think the problem might be related to one of the following:
- Using a different builds of to LEADTOOLS .Net DLLs. Please make sure you are using the latest LEADTOOLS .Net DLLs and you are referring to the correct DLLs from your machine. You can download the latest LEADTOOLS .Net v14 patch from our support site support@leadtools.com
- Also, Please make sure that the Leadtools.Kernel.dll on the same folder with the .Net DLLs.
- The problem might be related to the Twain driver that you use. Can you please try the same issue using different scanner or driver?

Please try the above instructions and let me know what will happen with you.

Thanks,

About the twain driver, it might be that your driver does not support this capability, because I am using the same sample with no problems on my machine.

Please try your code with the virtual Twain driver, you can get the Virtual TWAIN driver from "<http://www.twain.org/download.htm>", then click on "Download the Toolkit (Version: 1.7.0.3, Posted: February 18, 1999)" to download it.
 
Select this virtual scanner as the source scanner "TWAIN_32 Sample Source".
Use it to set and get the same capabilities and values that fail with LEADTOOLS.

Please try the above instructions and let me know what will happen with you.

Thanks,
Maen Badwan
