This robust ActiveX (OCX) control is designed to support TWAIN compliant devices and can be used with ease, even if you have no prior knowledge of TWAIN.
With TwainControlX, acquiring an image is a straightforward four-step process. First, the user selects the device they want to use from a list that the control generates. Second, any non-default settings required to configure the device, such as resolution, image size, etc., can be set.

The software also supports the acquisition of multiple images and the use of automatic document feeders (ADF), making it ideal for larger scanning projects.
