Twain VS WinTwain
Twain SDK has 2 Namespaces: Twain and WinTwain. I wonder what is the difference between the two, and which one to use.

Re: Twain VS WinTwain
Hello,
Vintasoft.Twain.dll - .NET assembly that can be used in .NET application for Windows and Linux. This assembly uses drawing primitives from Vintasoft.Shared library.
Vintasoft.WinTwain.dll - .NET assembly that can be used in .NET application for Windows. This assembly uses drawing primitives from System.Drawing.Common library.
Vintasoft.WpfTwain.dll - .NET assembly that can be used in WPF application for Windows. This assembly uses drawing primitives from WPF library.
This information is available here: https://www.vintasoft.com/docs/vstwain- ... v14_0.html
You need to use Vintasoft.Twain.dll, Vintasoft.WinTwain.dll or Vintasoft.WpfTwain.dll depending from your application and your task.
Best regards, Alexander
