The Acquisition Station can import any standard bitmapped images directly from a TWAIN compatible device. Audio and video files must be captured with software other than TWAIN and imported as single files or batches of files.

1. Go to Select TWAIN Source from the Acquire menu. If there is only one input device go directly to Step 3 (Import TWAIN).

   

2. Choose the device from the list that appears. Click Select.

3. Select Import TWAIN from the Acquire menu or click Acquire TWAIN from the toolbar. The TWAIN interface to your installed image acquisition software will open (scanner, digital camera, etc.).

4. To acquire the image, follow the procedures outlined in the documentation that came with the device's software. (Note: If you will be archiving full-resolution images in addition to the collection's preview image, please consult the Managing Full Resolution Images section of the Help files.)
