--details 

 

The --details option outputs JSON formatted information that describes all the installed TWAIN devices.  


This option should be used only for getting information on the devices, and not to acquire images. TwainSave will exit immediately after writing the details to the file filename and not attempt to acquire images

 

Example:

twainsave --details

 

The example above writes detailed information about the installed TWAIN devices to the console.  


To write the information to a file, you can direct the output to a file using the command-line indirection operators:

 

Example:

twainsave --details >> c:\details.txt

 

The above will write the information to c:\details.txt instead of the screen.


Please note:
 
If a device is defective (missing or broken device, or missing support libraries for the device) when detection is being undertaken, there is a possibility for TwainSave to exit with a diagnostic message, indicating a crash has occurred.  Since TWAIN drivers are not written by Dynarithmic Software, the device's manufacturer is responsible for writing the driver to behave correctly in the event of a broken or missing device/files.
