Free Scanning tool for Alfresco
Are you looking for a free scanning tool for Aflresco, you should try the new Capturesco version 2.0, open source built based on open source projects, no need to any licenses. Built with .Net framework 3.5 using C#. Can capture documents from any scanner with a TWAIN driver using ADF or flatbed by using the Native TWAIN User Interface or direct scanning. All documents can be saved as jpg, gif or Tiff also support single or multipage documents. The tool is still in development stages and testing. Feel free to add your comments and if you have any troubles just contact me and I will try to reply to you soon. Capturesco is a good start point for the developers who’s looking to develop their own customized scanning utility.
You can download Alfresco Scanning tool (Capturesco) from here.

Thanks for passing by, you need to open the project with VS 2008 with C# and modify the web service references of the project to read your alfresco installation and make sure before that to check that you can connect to the Alfresco web services

thanks for your reply.
i have tried it by configuring it on localhost.
Can we access site’s Document library using this ? if yes can you guide me how ?? i need to put scanned document in to site’s document library.

yes you can, the idea is to scan and save the scanned document to your document library.
If you don’t wanna wait till I release the documentation, I will give you quick guide,
Once you run the application you will be asked to enter your Alfresco user name and password, once you logged in.. select your source (i.e. scanner) select file format, then if u wanna scan directly or using TWAIN UI, and there should a be a tree (your document library should be mapped to it) select a folder then click scan.. that’s all

Rami, I got your Capturesco 2.0 source, but when I tried run it, I can’t add reference to AccessControlWebService. I don’t know if is the WSDL file that I am using that is different, because all the others are working. So, I’d like to know if did you tried your software in the last version of Alfresco (3.2r) ? If yes, is there any file to replace or modify ? Tks

I don’t know what is wrong with your installation, did you tries to login to Alfresco using the regular Alfresco login page? Because it should be working without any trouble.

Hi,
Thanks for your last reply…
Everything is working fine since I registered the WIA dll
Anyway, when recompiling the solution after changing host server’s IP address, I meet this issue on Alfresco.WebServiceFactory every time addSecurityHeader() is called :
Error ‘Alfresco.WebServiceFactory.addSecurityHeader(Microsoft.Web.Services3.WebServicesClientProtocol)’ not valid arguments
Any Idea ?
