Importing Scanned Images into a Windows Application (TWAIN)
To import scanned images into an application for Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista and
Windows Server 2003:
1. Open the file in which you want to place the image.
2. Click the application’s menu item to acquire the scanned image. For example, if you are placing
an image in a Microsoft Word 2003 document:
a. Click Insert.
b. Click Picture.
c. Click From Scanner or Camera.
d. Click the scanner, then click Custom Insert.
The Xerox Scan Utility window displays thumbnails of the scanned images. The date and time the
image was scanned appears below each thumbnail. If you move your mouse over the thumbnail, a
pop-up message displays information including the resolution and size of the image file. If a
recently scanned image is not displayed, click Refresh.
3. Select the image you want to import.
4. Click Retrieve. A copy of the image is transferred to the location in your application. If you want to
delete the images you selected, click Delete.
