New Scan2PDF feature

The ProScan Scan2PDF feature allows you to scan using the Scanner Profiles (or with the scanner interface) directly into a PDF file without the need to view the scanned pages in the Scan Manager.  There is also an option to view the PDF (with the default viewer for the computer) after it is created.

 

Note that this is a similar to a function in ProImage that allows you to Scan2PDF using the scanner interface, but being able to use the scanner profiles in the ProScan version gives you more flexibility.

 

 

Printing or creating a PDF from the Full Screen Preview

If you are using ProImage with ProScan, the ProImage Full Screen Previewer now has the ability to print or create a PDF file directly from that screen using buttons on the toolbar.  There is also an option to set the PDF compression on the pull down menu.  This can be quite useful for viewing or printing from the parent FORM or BROWSE.

 

 

Dynamic DLL Loading

ProScan now supports Dynamic DLL loading for API calls.  This totally eliminates all problems with version specific files and gets rid of the "Duplicate Symbol" error no matter what version of Clarion your using.

 

 

.CCL Files Renamed

The include files for the working source code have been renamed from .ccl to .clw and the templates updated accordingly.  This means that it is no longer necessary to modify the RED (redirection) file to support them in C5.5 and C6.  It also means that no modification at all to the redirection file is needed in C7.

 

 

Translation File Included

A text file called TransProScan.txt has been included (in the ProSeries/ProScan folder for C55/C6 and in the Vendor/ProScan folder on C7) that contains all the text from the class files.  Use this to add the Misc strings to your Clarion translation program (such as BoTran).

 

 

New Installer

ProImage has a new installer that supports:

* Clarion 5.5

* Clarion 6.x

* Clarion 7.x

 

This is a smart installer that allows you to install ProScan for multiple versions of Clarion without overwriting entries in the Add/Remove programs.  You can also uninstall one version without removing the other.

 

 

Other Items

There were numerous other fixes and improvements too numerous to mention here.  These include enhancements to the file handlers to prompt for deletion of the TIFF file when all pages have been deleted from it.
