The PixeLINK Capture TWAIN interface is a standard TWAIN Data Source that can be used to capture images directly from a PixeLINK camera into 3rd party applications such as Microsoft Word, Adobe Photoshop and CorelDRAW. The image capture process with the PixeLINK Capture TWAIN interface is simple, but the exact steps necessary to open a TWAIN interface are specific to each application. Consult the application manuals and help files for instructions. Often, applications regard TWAIN-enabled devices (such as PixeLINK cameras) as being distinct from digital cameras, sometimes categorizing them as "scanners" and the image capture process as "scanning".
Make sure that the PixeLINK Capture TWAIN software is installed. PixeLINK Capture TWAIN is included with all PixeLINK software applications and is included in several 3rd party application installs.
Connect a PixeLINK camera and open your application. Ensure no other program is accessing the camera.
Open the PixeLINK Capture TWAIN interface. The method to do this is specific to each application. Refer to the documentation and help for your application.
