GC 10 - Faces/Help

<t>I have been playing with the new Faces facility. While I think I more or less understand how it works through experimentation, I thought I'd consult Help. So I clicked on it and was invited to download the help file.No problem when doing this, and I am still reading it, but I was surprised that S...

Alas, no. Neither my printer nor Anne's has wireless capability. John.

Re: Oh, RATS!!! Yos 4 upsets TWAIN again

<t>Fair enough. I searched the web and fond that I could download and run ExactScan on a trial basis.It failed to drive my scanner direct, but when I selected the Use Native Drivers option it opened ScanGear at once and I was able to Preview.So it is possible for a third-party application to call th...

Oh, RATS!!! Yos 4 upsets TWAIN again

<r>When I moved up from Mavericks to Yosemite 2, TWAIN ceased to work properly when called by GC. I complained vociferously about it at the time, as I’m sure Thorsten will remember.The symptoms were that after TWAIN was invoked, either by menu or Command-T, there was a two minute wait until the Cano...

Re: Image Capture problem

<t>Are you calling Image Capture direct or via GC? What happens if you try the other route?If you launch Activity Monitor and look for Image Capture Extension, is it running?What happens if you do a Restart, or log out of your Mac and log in again (quicker and equally effective in most cases)?Scanni...

Trouble with TWAIN

<t>I’m sorry this is a bit long, but I’ve tried to be as brief as I can.I have been using “Scan with TWAIN” in GraphicConverter to acquire images from the scanner and edit them in GraphicConverter for many years. In particular, I’ve been using it with my present iMac (20-inch, Mid 2007) and all-in-o...

Re: Automatic Orientation and Printer Presets

<t>The strangest thing has happened!As an experiment, I replaced the Yosemite-created Printer Presets by those from Mavericks.This had no effect, so i did a Restart in case the Printer Presets were reloaded at startup. This broke TWAIN again, of course, but I’m used to that and reinstalled the scann...

Re: Automatic Orientation and Printer Presets

<t>"I seem to be having a problem with 'Orientation Depending on image proportions'.It works fine for me with Printer Presets set to Default Settings. But I have a Canon MG5150, which has both a casette and a rear tray. If I create a printer preset to force it to use the latter (this involves only o...

Automatic Orientation and Printer Presets

So If I am raising something that has already been well discussed, please bear with me.I seem to be having a problem with “Orientation Depending on image proportions”.It works fine for me with Printer Presets set to Default Setting...
