CStoreOffice® Support & Learning

Installing Dynamsoft Service

The Dynamsoft Service is a component which is required to handle the communication between the hardware (scanner, webcam, etc.) and the browser. It represents the core piece of the Dynamic Web TWAIN SDK when it is launched in the service mode.

For more information about the Dynamic Web TWAIN SDK and its Dynamsoft Service component, refer to the manufacturer's official web-site: Dynamic Web TWAIN.

In CStoreOffice®, you will need to install the Dynamsoft Service to scan documents using scanner or camera. You will need to install the Dynamsoft Service only once and then continue scanning documents without any additional steps.

Your camera and scanner must support the TWAIN component as it is required for proper scanning or taking snapshots operations with the Dynamsoft Service. To learn how to check if your device supports TWAIN, refer to the Hardware article on the manufacturer's web-site.
