Hi-

I am working on a very simple document management system. I would like to
allow the user to control a scanner from inside the
application(specifically, scan a document and save it in .pdf format, and
with the database maintaining the name of the newly created file).

I have not worked scanners on a programming level and any help would be
greatly appreciated(also, please note that I am not opposed to buying com
objects to facilitate the development).

Thanks,

Rick
 
Thank you all for your advice. However, do you know of an Visual Basic
samples?

Thanks,

As one poster mentioned, you can use Atalasoft DotImage for a suite of
managed .NET imaging components that lets you very easily scan
documents, and save them to a PDF.

Also, if you want a standalone 100% managed scanning solution, you can
use DotTwain, but this doesn't give you PDF output support.

More information is available at http://www.atalasoft.com/

Please give us a call or email if you would like to talk more about
how oru components could save you a lot of time and money.
