Dynamic Web TWAIN
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
What it is
Dynamic Web TWAIN is a browser-based document-scanning SDK for web applications. It controls TWAIN, WIA, ICA, SANE, and eSCL scanners while processing scans locally through the Dynamsoft Web TWAIN Service; document data is not sent to Dynamsoft servers. Pages can be exported as PDF, TIFF, JPEG, PNG, or BMP, including multipage PDF and TIFF files. A built-in viewer and editor provide annotation, zoom, deskew, and rotation. Disk caching supports unlimited pages per session, and a 64-bit mode handles large data. Client support includes Windows 7 or later, macOS 10.15 or later, and Linux x64, ARM64, or MIPS distributions. It works with listed browsers and frameworks including React, Vue, Angular, JavaScript, and TypeScript, with server compatibility for Node.js, PHP, ASP.NET, Java, and Python. Pricing is on request, with a 30-day unrestricted trial.
