Yakabudiswa muna 1992, Twain ndiyo inonyanya kushandiswa yeWindows uye Macintosh iyo inobvumira imaging hardware madivayiri (akadai se scanners uye digital kamera) kuti ataure nemifananidzo yekugadzira software.
TWAIN isati yasvika, zvigadziro zvekuwana zvifananidzo zvose zvakauya neavo pachake software. Kana iwe uchida kushanda nemufananidzo wakatarwa mune imwe shanduro yakasiyana, iwe waifanira kuchengetedza chifananidzo ku diski kutanga, wozarura kushandiswa kwesarudzo yako uye zvakare uzarure mufananidzo ikoko.
Zvinenge zvose software yekushandura mafungiro nhasi isVININ inoenderana. Kana software yako inobatsira TWAIN, iwe uchawana murairo we "Gamuchira" mu menus kana toolbars (kunyange dzimwe nguva mutemo wakavanzwa pasi peMutauro wokuDa).
Uyu murairo unopa mawaniro kune chero matombo eTWAIN hardware akaiswa purogiramu. Kunyange zvazvo kuonekwa kwepurogiramu uye zvigadziro zvechigadziro chimwe nechimwe zvinogona kusiyana, mutemo weTWAIN Wakawana unodudza hardware interfacing software, uye unoisa mufananidzo wakawana mufananidzo wekugadzira mifananidzo, pasina chidimbu chemufananidzo kuti uchengetedzwe ku diski.
Saka chii chinonzi TWAIN chinomiririra? Maererano neThe Free On-line Dictionary ye Computing uye yakasimbiswa neIndaneti yeTWAIN Yechikwata chebasa, haisi mutsara zvachose:
Izwi rokuti TWAIN rinobva kuK Kipling's "The Ballad of East uye West-West" - "... uye hapana vaviri vacho vachasangana ...", vachiratidza kuoma, panguva iyo, yekubatanidza scanner uye makomikombi evanhu. Izvo zvakasimudzwa-zvakaiswa kuTWAIN kuti zvive zvakasiyana zvikuru. Izvi zvakaita kuti vanhu vatende kuti yaiva mutsara, uyezve kumakwikwi okuuya nekuwedzera. Hapana chakasarudzwa, asi iyo inopinda "Teknolojia isina Zita Rinofadza" inoramba ichiramba huwandu.

Kushandiswa kwakajeka kweTWAIN ndobvumira kubvongodza kwezvifananidzo zvakananga kuPhotohop . Izvi zvave zvichiwedzera kuoma kutanga kubva pakusunungurwa kwe Photoshop CS5 uye inoenderera kusvika nhasi. Chikonzero chekuti Adobe akatsigire rutsigiro rwe 64-bit TWAIN scanners mune 64-bit kana 32-bit Photoshop, uye rinokurudzirawo kushandisa TWAIN "pangozi yako pachako".
CS6 inongomhanya mu 64-bit mode: kana wako scanner mutyairi asingagoni kubata 64-bit mode, iwe unogona kusakwanisa kushandisa TWAIN. Kutaura zvazviri, TWAIN inogona kunge iine teknolojia pamakumbo ayo ekupedzisira. Ndinofara, Adobe ine mamwe mazano anowanikwa kune dzimwe nzvimbo.
