Dynamsoft’s Dynamic Web TWAIN SDK is a powerful solution for web-based image processing, which allows developers to ignore the low-level details, and focus on what is important. In July, 2012 Dynamic Web TWAIN 8.0 was released to the market, adding new cutting-edge technology to the API. Two new powerful add-ons were added which add support for OCR (Optical Character Recognition), and Barcode Recognition. This document will focus on the OCR add-on, which allows developers to make use of this technology without worrying about the low-level implementation, while maintaining flexibility.
The web version of the SDK is controlled by JavaScript, a scripting language that almost all web developers are familiar with. A wide library of functions and properties is provided to give developers full control, and implement their own interface easily. All popular browsers are supported, and the underlying Web TWAIN software is provided as an ActiveX control as well as a browser plugin. Users of Internet Explorer can make use of the ActiveX version, and users of other browsers, such as Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera, can make use of the plugin version. For those not using the Windows operating system, a Mac plugin edition is also available.
Below, we’ll make use of Dynamsoft’s new Dynamic Web TWAIN OCR add-on to extract text from a scanned image. All three output modes will be demonstrated: Plain Text, Plain Text PDF, and Image over Text PDF. If the Dynamic Web TWAIN SDK is not yet installed on your system, you can easily download a trial, or view and use the online demo on the Dynamsoft web-site.
Explaining all the new must have features in Windows 7 to make your application look shiny and professional, like the new features of the task bar and more.
The following article has two purposes:
- From the architectural perspective: To show an approach to integrate Windows applications with smarthphone and tablet applications through HTML5 WebSockets.
It is not a goal of this article to provide a final and polished solution, the source code and applications provided are just for demonstrating the concept. Although the .net application uses the WPF library, it can be used with any UI library.
- From the software engineering perspective: To show a concrete and useful case of a Visual Studio remote debugging console on iPhones, extensible to Android devices.

Access is both a handy tool and a pain in the neck to use. It removes all of the complexities of using SQL Server, DB2, or Oracle and provides a nice point and click interface. However, It does not follow all of the SQL rules and will not do full outer joins. Also, Access documentation and support sucks. It does provide a VBA interface that allows us to code around the problems.
My assignment was to run a stored query 90 times to get a sample set of data for 90 days. I came up with two solutions. The first created a text file using tab delimiters and the second built a table dynamically. The code should work for any record set created from any query.
This article is an introduction to the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF). We will try to see the basic concepts behind WCF and will try to implement a small WCF service. We will also work out some small examples of how a WCF service can be consumed.
Android provides several options for you to save persistent application data. The solution you choose depends on your specific needs, such as whether the data should be private to your application or accessible to other applications (and the user) and how much space your data requires.
