Note: Photo Explorer offers WDM driver support for “push-model aware” scanners.
Selected buttons on such scanners can be configured to carry out a list of
commands. For example, pressing a button could automatically run Photo Explorer,
get an image from a scanner, and save it to the active folder. Because Photo Explorer
supports this technology, acquiring images is now even easier than before.
Notes:

Ulead Photo Explorer User Guide
In Photo Explorer, using File: TWAIN Acquire is recommended only for getting
images from a scanner. For digital cameras, use File: Digital Camera Wizard
instead. In most cases, JPEG images from a camera will be decompressed and
resaved with some loss of image quality through TWAIN transfers. Also, Exif
camera information embedded in the JPEG files will be lost. The Digital Camera
Wizard can be used with many cameras to avoid the problems associated with
TWAIN transfers.
Renaming and renumbering files
After getting images from a digital camera or scanner, you may want to change
their file names or renumber their sequence. The Tools: Auto Rename command
automatically changes the file names for you.
To automatically rename your files:
1. Select the files to rename, then select Tools:
Auto Rename.
2. By default, files can be renamed and numbered
starting from one. Click the Quick Rename
button to use this default.
3. Click New to define more criteria for renaming
files.
4. Specify your renaming criteria by selecting one
of the tabs in the Batch Operation dialog box.
Click a tab to define settings, then click OK.
5. To set more conditions for renaming files,
repeat steps 2 and 3.
6. Click OK in the Auto Rename dialog box to
start the renaming process.
