Hiya, Could it be possible they've run an app that strips UBs of the non- native side? I've seen a package that does this but I can't recall it's name at the moment. I'm wondering if, once this is done, it leaves the non-native external as there is not a native alternative, but if the app

I've been looking for a TWAIN solution for Revolution for quite some time. Unfortunately, the only solution I can find is to use a TWAIN command line interface that costs from $199 to $1,099 for royalty free use. This would be a solution for Windows machines. I don't know about the Mac (it may

blendlevel of stack/window
