SilverFast can be installed as a Photoshop plug-in, TWAIN plug-in, or both. However, there isn't a TWAIN variant available for all supported operating systems.
The SilverFast Photoshop plug-in will work with Photoshop versions ranging from 5.5 up to CS 2, and all versions of Photoshop Elements. It cannot be used together with Corel Painter.
The TWAIN plug-in variant offers to scan directly from a TWAIN compatible application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat 4 and 5, JASC Paintshop Pro 8.10 or later, Corel PhotoPaint 10, GIMP 2.0 or later, IrfanView, etc.). Not all graphics and OCR programmes are sufficiently TWAIN compatible and might cause trouble (e.g. OmniPage, Ulead PhotoImpact 10 with Microtek drivers). |
