The Most Reliable and Robust ISIS Scanning

Save time, increase data accuracy, and improve efficiency with ISIS (Image and Scanner Interface Specification). The robustness of ImageGear combines with the flexibility of ISIS allowing developers to capture data from paper and electronic documents and deliver it into enterprise applications.

Highlights

• Unites a universe of scanners and applications
• Supports features of leading document scanners
• Enables developers to take advantage of the built-in power of their own scanners
• Supports new and complex scanners that are introduced into information systems
• Provides control - developers have the ability to manage scanner features, such as display, file writing, and printing
• Saves time - less testing due to ability to consistently communicate with more than 300 different scanners

Advantages of ISIS vs. TWAIN

Attribute ISIS TWAIN Benefit Driver Interface Consistent from scanner to scanner Varies from scanner to scanner ISIS users need not learn interface of every scanner Scanner Features Fully supports every feature of every scanner Not all TWAIN drivers fully support every feature of every scanner With ISIS, every scanner feature is supported no matter what scanner is being used Speed Always scans at rated speed of scanner Doesn't always scan at rated speed ISIS allows you to take full advantage of the power built in to your scanner Application Interaction ISIS applications interact with all ISIS scanners in a consistent way, and vice versa. Interaction is not consistent across all scanners; a new scanner may interact differently with an application ISIS is readily compatible; less testing is required, which lowers development costs Display Images   TWAIN only does scanning whereas ISIS supports image display; if you scan with TWAIN and you need image display, you must write it yourself or license it from someone else Rotate Images   ISIS allows an application to scan in landscape orientation and rotate in real-time to portrait to increase pages per minute Consistently Write to Popular File Formats (JPEG, TIF, PCX, BMP, etc.)   ISIS conforms to your needs and existing file formats; TWAIN drivers depend on the individual drivers Scanner Interaction ISIS driver intelligently queries scanner as to capabilities, relays only appropriate choices to application GUI TWAIN driver often does not interact with application GUI Simplifies scanner setup; allows control of scanner from within application Compress to JPEG 2000 and Other Formats   Images scanned using ISIS may be easily compressed, saving valuable storage space and speeding transfer times Read Image Files from Disk, Website or Database   ISIS enables you to create a centralized input management solution that can collect information in varied formats and from varied mediums Read and Write Multipage Image Files   More often than not, scanned documents are not standalone and contain more than one image on more than one page; ISIS allows you to streamline the processing of this input by not forcing you to treat every page as a separate document
