document are recognized as text information and held in the PDF file so that you can
search a PDF with simple keywords.

the preview looks different from what you want, you can change the settings, display the
preview again and confirm before printing/scanning.

ScanGear MP and the WIA driver (for use with Windows XP).
T
TWAIN (Technology without an interested name)
Industry-standard protocol for transferring information from devices such as scanners
and digital cameras to a computer.
Industry-standard protocol for an application programming interface (API) for input
devices such as scanners. If both the device and the application comply with the standard,
they will be compatible regardless of differences in manufacturer or model.
For example, with TWAIN-compatible image-processing software, you can start the
scanner’s TWAIN driver (ScanGear MP) from the software’s menu, scan the document
and return the scanned image to its original image-processing software.
U
