Version 6.0.2.1 of VintaSoftTwain ActiveX has been released.

Post by Alex »

Version 6.0.2.1 of VintaSoftTwain ActiveX has been released.

What's new in this version:
  • ActiveX GUID was changed from "1169E0CD-9E76-11D7-B1D8-FB63945DE96D" to "79B1D0FD-ABB9-40E8-AA06-3E499F135B49". This is necessary because many customers need to use version 5.2 and 6.0 together on the same computer but version 6.0 is not compatible with version 5.2. For applying this change to your application you need remove reference to old version of ActiveX from your application and add new reference to the new version of ActiveX to your application.
  • Added support for LZW and Packbits compression for data of images acquired from scanner.
  • Renamed the events of ActiveX (underscore symbol was removed from event names). This is necessary for correct work of IntelliSence in MS Access.
