Scan images into Forms app / Twain scanner

Can you provide your thoughts on how to have a Form ***QUICKLY*** scan and crop passport photo size images from a scanner
Speed of data entry is essential so I would like to minimize the total time and keep the mouse and key click count down.
I would like to do as much as possible within the form window. Scanning directly into an image on the form would be nice as the current app does this via a Twain scan
The scanned image will be stored in a file (either on the Forms application server or in the client MS-Windows file system ). The file name will be stored in the database and displayed in the form. Im not sure if the image needs to be displayed in the form window or not.
The scanned images are passport sized photos of face.
The user needs to make minimum changes to the photo - usually only cropping.
Are there any Java beans that will help do this ? Should I use OLE via WEB_UTIL ? Any other ideas ?
Thanks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Environment : Forms 10g (9.0.4.0.19), Database 10gr2, Window client, Linux / Unix application server, scanners are Twain compatible or can scan to file.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks - that is the info I was hoping for.
There are Forms java bean solutions from two different people on that page. Ill try and get in touch with them and see if I can sponge the code off them.
In the meantime, please post more suggestions if you have them

  • Using photoshop elements 13 but the option to crop a single image is grayed out and also the option to crop a scanned image into individual pictures is grayed out - any ideas?

    The option to crop an image is always grayed out or unavailable - both for single images and when I want to crop scanned images into individual pictures. Any idea what I may be doing wrong?

    Did you try using the crop tool to see if it is working?  See the tool I am talking about.
    I suspect you are in Guided Mode rather than in Quick Mode or Expert Mode.

  • VBA code to import scanned images into Photoshop CS2 with TWAIN

    Hi,
    I have to develop a solution that automates the scanning of an image using the TWAIN driver interface. Once scanned, the image appears as a new document in Photoshop where it will be further processed using VBScript scripts.
    The solution so far :
    Using the freeware 'EZTW32.dll' (copied into C:\WINDOWS\System\), I am able to open the TWAIN scan dialogue on screen, using the function 'TWAIN_AcquireToClipboard(Me.Hwnd, nPixTypes) from the 'EZTW32' dll.
    Once the image is scanned, the TWAIN driver is automatically closed, leaving the scanned image on the Windows clipboard.
    I then launch Photoshop CS2 using a shell code :
    (It is important that Photoshop runs minimized)
    Dim strPathname As String
    Dim lngShellReturn As Long
    Dim appRef As Object
    Dim newDocRef
    strPathname = "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Photoshop.exe"
    lngShellReturn = Shell(strPathname, vbMinimizedNoFocus)
    Set appRef = CreateObject("Photoshop.Application")
    When Photoshop is running, then a new document is created and the scanned image is pasted into the document from the Windows clipboard...
    Set newDocRef = Documents.Add(8.268, 11.693, 600, "New Doc")
    newDocRef.Paste
    OK, this works up to a point. The newly scanned image appears automatically in Photoshop.
    The big problem is that when the user makes a change in resolution or draws a selection box in the TWAIN dialog, this data is not recovered from TWAIN, so the image size parameters in the new document cannot be set.
    A beter solution would be to write code that emulates the menu commands in Photoshop CS2:
    File -> Import -> [Current Scanner]
    that launches the TWAIN driver for the current scanner (the code must close TWAIN immediately after scanning). In this case, the resolution and image selection parameters are also imported into the new document.
    I am currently refering to the Photoshop CS2 SDK. Do I need to request the Advanced SDK ?
    Once beyond this point, then I think I can continue the image processing routines using VBScript as per the SDK.
    Any help or other pointers to the TWAIN problem would be VERY APPRECIATED !
    Lars

    PLEASE IGNORE MY PREVIOUS POST !
    I have now fully resolved the TWAIN problem. It works perfectly and is very robust. I am now continuing with the batch image processing for the newly scanned images using the Photoshop CS2 SDK scripting documents, that I find very detailed, well written, and VERY helpful :)
    Peace and love,
    Lars

  • Unable to load external image into iOS app with AS3

    Just trying out Flash Builder for iOS app development and have run into a problem right off the bat with loading an external image into an iOS app.  The actionscript is very simple (this was basically my Hello World attempt), and I'm hoping someone here can explain where I'm going wrong.  This code works in Flash Pro, and works when launched on the desktop from Flash Builder, but doesn't work on my iOS devices.
    Here's the code:
                                  var container:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
                                  addChild(container);
                                  var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
           imageLoader.load(new URLRequest("http://www.google.ca/intl/en_ALL/images/logos/images_logo_lg.gif"));
                                  imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, startListener);
      function startListener (e:Event):void{
                                                 container.addChild(imageLoader);
    Any thoughts on why this won't work would be greatly appreciated!

    I had the same issue, and modified my domain policy file as specified  in http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security.html#_Configuring_URL_M eta-Policies but the loader is not loading the file. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

  • How to scan document into forms directly ?

    First I would suggest that you read the documentation about working with Active/X.
    The online version is in the documentation section of Forms on OTN.
    Then, you insert the scan.ocx into your form. you use the ole importer to create a pl/sql package to communicate with the ocx and you are ready to start calling methods such as scan etc...

  • How can I import scanned images into InDesign CS5 using Mac10.6?

    I want to be able to import scanned images. What file format must I save the data in?

    Greg Parks L.A. wrote:
    For example, to print on a press you need images that are CMYK at 300 ppi, 100% scale. If you're just making office-quality documents or PDFs, you can use RGB images at a lower resolution.
    You do not need images to be CMYK for print. InDesign can handle the conversion from RGB to CMYK when exporting to PDF. The old rule of thumb that images for print need to be 300 ppi is history. The ideal minimum resolution is halftone screen times the square root of 2 (1.41421356). But you can get away with a lower resolution for most images.

  • Inserting images into forms

    I want to know how I can create a pdf form that will allow people to attach images to the form so when they submit it the images are also submitted.  Can anyone help?

    If they have a full version of Acrobat, then you could set up a button field from the Forms menu and set it to accept an icon only. They would need to have some knowledge of Acrobat but it could be done.

    Hi there,
    I have a form which has over 150 fields (from 4 tables). I have used a tab-canvas form to handle all the input - 2 screens for the fields from the first table and 1 screen each for the remaining 3 tables. I can navigate between the tabs without trouble. When everything is done, the contents of the screens are saved to the database via a menu item. Most of the fields are database items.
    My point is that Oracle Form has no problems in handling
    such processing and I am only using its normal default capabilities.
    What type of canvas are you using? There should be no reason to use buttons to navigate betweeen screens if you are using a tab-canvas form. You should not have to use PL/SQL table to handle the data if the fields are normal database columns.
    Regards,
    John

  • How to make my own custom photo album background from scanned image?

    I know how to use the custom backgrounds within photoshop elements 5.0 but I would like to create my own. I have scanned a map of Big Bend National Park that I used as a DVD title menu and would like to make a photo album and use the same scanned map as the backgroud for all pages. Is that doable in elements 5.0? Can I just add the scanned image into the custom folders somehow?

    My thought is to create a single thread, and within
    that thread continually pull from a static array
    casting each to an EventObject type. But I am confused
    also as to how to dispatch the events to their
    appropriate listeners.This is commonly known as a ProducerConsumerQueue: you have multiple sources of events, and multiple consumers for those events. The queue mediates between producers and consumers.
    In the case of an event thread, the queue runs in one thread, and all the producers run in other threads. In the case of the Swing/AWT event thread, the producer is the GUI code in the JVM, which receives OS-level (considering X an OS for the moment!) window events and then puts them on the queue, associated with the correct object.
    You'll find a LinkedList a better choice for the queue than a static array, as it can grow or shrink without bounds. The consumer side calls removeFirst(); if nothing's in the List, it calls wait(). The producer side calls addLast(), followed by notify(). Needless to say, you'll need synchronization, but you don't want to synchronize your listeners ... that's a fun problem that's left for the reader.
    The various listener lists can be maintained with Maps, where the event object is used to lookup a list of listeners. In a GUI environment, the event object has to maintain the source as well as the event object; in a non-GUI environment, it typically only holds the event type.
