DocuMate 700  Scanning from TWAIN
Scanning from TWAIN
You can scan from any TWAIN scanning application instead of scanning from the One Touch 
buttons on your scanner or the One Touch button panel.
A Note About Your Scanner and the TWAIN standard: TWAIN is a widely recognized 
standard that computers use to receive images from scanners, digital cameras, and other digital 
devices. The TWAIN scanning interface can be accessed from any TWAIN scanning application 
you have installed on the computer. Applications such as Nuance PaperPort and OmniPage, 
which were provided with your scanner, and many other applications, can use the TWAIN 
interface for scanning. Because the TWAIN interface is often the same regardless of the 
software you use to open it, you can still use the instructions in this User’s Guide for scanning 
with your DocuMate 700. To access the TWAIN interface from other software, please refer to 
their user’s guides, then return to this User’s Guide for the steps to scan.
NOTE: You can access the TWAIN interface when you’re scanning from the One Touch 
software. If the One Touch configuration you are using is set to Configure Before Scan, and the 
selected option is TWAIN, the TWAIN interface opens right away when pressing the button on 
your scanner without opening any other TWAIN-compliant software first. See the section 
“Configure Before Scan” on page 29 for details.
The PaperPort and OmniPage user guides are located on the installation disc you received with 
the scanner. 
The PaperPort software includes a complete set of help topics that answer questions about 
each feature of the software. To open the Help Topics window, press the F1 key on your 
keyboard or choose PaperPort help from the Help menu.
