know the answer to your question, but in my use of Corel PhotoPaint and
the
Epson flatbed TWAIN it had the option in PhotoPaint to either close
the
TWAIN after the scan or leave it open. You may have such a setting
in your
software.
Re the messages on the list, most I think are concerning Vuescan, which
does
not use the scanner's TWAIN. Using Vuescan, you would open Vuescan
and make
your scans exporting them into PhotoShop or VuePrint at your option,
and
Vuescan would meanwhile remain open until you choose to close
it.

Thanks! I presume Vuescan and VuePrint are the same. Is this
correct?
I tried this with the Microtek scanner. When I acquired the image,
it brought up the Microtek software. I was able to work with the
image in VuePrint with the Microtek software active. I could not do
this PhotoShop 5.0. With PhotoShop, it brought up the the Microtek
software, but I had to close it in order to work with the
image.
You mentioned an option of exporting to PhotoShop or VuePrint, I did not
find an option for doing this. Perhaps, there is something I
overlooked. I did move the image with copy and paste to a new blank
image window setup in Photo Shop.

As I have said before, I am new to scanning. I am in a learning
mode.
Working with flatbed scanners...HP ScanJet IIC & Microtek SlimScan
C6...with
the HP & Microtek bundled software...using both VuePrint Pro_32
and
Photoshop 5.0, when I scan, I have to close out the HP or Microtek
software
to work with the image.
Am I overlooking something? Can I work differently with other
scanners? If
so, which ones?
Can I scan directly into VuePrint Pro_32 or Photoshop 5.0 with
different
settings or different scanners?
This seems to be the case from some of the messages that I read on the
list,
but I have not figured out how to do this with my scanners.
