Hi!
I'm new around here, but i've searches all the ressources. I have a twain-related problem, which hasn't cropped up here in this particular way:
There is a scanner for digital xray memory foils, which i'd like to access natively from OSX. The image management software and the Scanner use twain as an interface, but sadly the manufacturer of the scanner only supplies a windows version of the driver.
I know how the twain support in wine works (sending it to sane), but this doesn't help me, since i don't want to scan to a windows application, but to encapsule the windows driver.
It would have to work like this:
[ scanner ] <---twain protocol---> (encapuled windows driver) <---twain protocol---> [OSX application]
so that the driver would look like a mac driver to the app.
I wonder why this hasn't cropped up anywhere, since i think there are a lot of special scanners, which could be accessed on a mac or a linux box by this method…
Has anyone of you ever heard of a solution?
Thanks,
Jörg
