| Image Processing and Editing |
- Comprehensive set of over 80 image processing functions, including zoom
- Color anti-aliasing and smoothing for zoomed images
- Advanced merging capabilities
- Retention of image transparency
- Automated 1 bpp image cleanup
- Border removal
- Autocrop
- Adjust contrast, brightness, hue, saturation, gamma, and more (Display adjustment of contrast, brightness, and gamma)
- 24, 8, 4, and 1-bit color depth conversions with advanced palette control

| TWAIN Scanning |
- Acquire images from TWAIN scanners and digital cameras
- Data source enumeration and selection
- Enable/disable data source user interface
- Multiple image acquisition
- Read and Write basic G3/G4 TIFF, JPEG, BMP and PackBits
- FTP upload capability
- Specify image resolution, image scaling, units, and color depth
- Negotiate for all standard device features such as image dimensions, location and resolution
- Negotiate for optional device features such as: autofeeder enabling, brightness, contrast, image layout/frame, maximum image transfers, progress indicators, resolution, scaling, and units
- Scan images faster and use less memory by transferring images from the data source in either Native or Buffered Memory transfer mode
- Provides support for advanced TWAIN capabilities like barcode or patchcode detection and compressed data transfer directly from the scanner
- Reduce data transferred between the scanner and the PC by transferring images from high-end scanners using the scanner's built-in compression
- Catch illegal operations from errant TWAIN Data Sources before they crash the application. TwainPRO will return an error back to the application letting the application safely exit or continue.
