Selecting your scanner 15
general scanner driver types supported by the program. You can select
either a Photoshop plug-in or a TWAIN driver depending on your
scanner.
For specific scanner types which work with a TWAIN driver, you can
choose whether to use their own interface or use OmniPage Pro’s
interface. For scanners using a Photoshop plug-in driver, its interface
is always displayed while scanning.
Each scanner driver provides a different user interface, so the available
options may vary.
Tip See an overview table in the online Help topic Selecting a scanner. This summarizes
the user interface differences depending on which type of scanner driver is chosen.
