ImageMaster™ Architecture |
- Core Engine: ImageMaster™
is written in the Microsoft FoxPro 4gl language utilizing advanced
SQL queries and fully optimized Rushmore technology. Customized versions
of the ImageMaster™ application are
available to OEMs and VARs who wish to integrate the
ImageMaster™ functionality with their products.
- Viewing Engine: An ultra fast
decompression and image manipulation module is included within
ImageMaster™. Additional viewers for
specialized applications can be easily integrated via a standard plug-in
API.
- Viewing Formats: TIFF, Adobe PDF, PCX,
CALS, JPEG, BMP, and MIL are supported using the FullView32 Classic Viewing
Engine included with ImageMaster™.
- Scanning Engine: A high performance
custom scanning interface provides hands-off scanning for most TWAIN and
all Kofax attached scanners. ImageMaster™
features common scanning controls and a consistent user interface
regardless of what brand, make, or model scanner is used.
- Imaging Engine: Supports images
stored on any magnetic device or group of devices, any OS readable optical
or magneto-optical device, WORM, CD-ROM, and DVD. Integral support is
provided for removable and non-removable devices, including intelligent
error handling for these types of devices. Jukeboxes and CD-ROM towers are
supported. ImageMaster™ also supports
SAN and NAS devices.
- Print Capture Engine:
ImageMaster™ can capture print output
from any application and create a scanned document representation of the
data. ImageMaster™ includes a native
Windows printer object that supports all of the standard Windows printer
device properties such as page size, orientation, and resolution in both
color and black and white.
- 3rd Party Control:
ImageMaster™ can be controlled by any
3rd party application that can call a batch file. In addition,
ImageMaster™ is an OLE Automation
Server for rich control by other Windows programs. ImageMaster™
also features a silent DDE Server to provide embedded document management
services for any vertical application software.

System Requirements |
- Operating System:
ImageMaster™
runs on Microsoft Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, 2003, and XP.
Note: Windows IA and Windows 64-bit versions are not supported at
this time.
- CPU: Any supported by the underlying
operating system. Recent generation Pentium, Xenon, Sempron, Turion, and
Opteron processors are recommended for scanning stations.
- Memory: The baseline memory
requirements of the operating system are all that is required to run ImageMaster™.
Additional memory above the minimum (at least 1 gigabyte) is highly
recommended for scanning stations.
- Video: Any video subsystem supported
by Windows works well with ImageMaster™.
No special drivers are required. If available, ImageMaster™
can take advantage of multiple screen configurations which are especially
well suited for the bulk scanning and post-indexing features of the
software.
- Hard Disk: ImageMaster™
requires 25 megabytes of storage at each workstation for the locally
installed client. On the file server, ImageMaster™
requires 60 megabytes for the initial software load plus 35 kilobytes for
each scanned page. Documents can be either co-located with the database or
stored on a separate imaging server.
- Mouse: Not required, but is supported
and highly recommended. ImageMaster™
is fully keyboard controllable for the utmost in performance.
- Supported Scanners:
ImageMaster™ can scan documents from
most TWAIN and all Kofax connected devices, including USB, SCSI, KF
series, and Adrenaline interfaces. See the Approved Scanner
List for the
most up-to-date list of tested scanners.
- Monitor: A 17" CRT or 15" LCD (or
larger) monitor is recommended for optimal use of ImageMaster™.
Scanning stations should be configured with this size or larger.
Viewing-only and occasional use workstations can be configured with any
monitor that is supported by the operating system.
- Remote Access: ImageMaster™
can be operated remotely through Citrix or Terminal Server to provide
secure, authenticated, and managed access to documents from remote
locations and across the internet.
