Description: This plugin acquires images from TWAIN sources such as scanners, digital cameras and frame grabbers. To avoid the TWAIN select source dialog, run from a macro using run("Twain 6", "default") or install with Plugins/Shortcuts/Install Plugins using the argument "default".

The original Twain plugin that worked with version 4 and earlier of the Gnome Java Twain package is available at Twain_.java and Twain_.class.
