Leadtools.Workflow.Scan Introduction

The LEADTOOLS Windows Workflow offering includes WF activities for file loading and saving, TWAIN and WIA scanning, image processing, document image processing and clean-up, barcode reading and writing, and Optical Character Recognition (OCR). These new activities can be used in any application framework that supports Windows WF such as SharePoint and Microsoft CRM.

Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) is a development framework that enables you to embed workflows in .NET Framework applications. A workflow application is a software application which coordinates and manages individual units of work, encapsulated as activities. Activities can be chained together to automate one or more processes. The processes are usually business-related, but can be any process that requires a series of steps that can be automated via software.

Leadtools.Workflow.Scan Namespace extends LEADTOOLS SDK allowing developers to easily create Windows Workflow applications to facilitate scanning and outputting to a disk or Workflow Image.
