Amiga People, I need your help. I am a technical writer that has made some progress in impressing the management with the superiority of the Amiga. Currently, I use the Amiga to generate most of the graphics used in the various user guides and reference manuals I crank out. I have been getting a lot of favorable comments regarding, among other things, the graphics. Admittedly, the graphic tools available to me on my expensive workstation really sucks the big one. I have an opportunity to use an Epson ES 300C color scanner at home on my Amiga 500. I need a driver. I know zip about building drivers. Does anyone out there have a driver that will suit my needs? If failing this, maybe someone has a tools with which I can generate my own driver? Any and all pointers will be appreciated. This may not be of interest to other Amiga-ites, so you may want to reply directly to me. My email addresses are bc@smsc.sony.com or !uunet!sonyusa!bc. Thanks. bc -- :~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~: : bc in microsystems "If you can't take the : : FAX: 408/954-0849 heat, stay out of the : : bc@smsc.sony.com OR !uunet!sonyusa!bc chicken."

Does anyone out ASDG has just started shipping its second generation of scanner controllers. The first scanner so supported is the EPSON ES-300C. Our product is called simply, the ES-300C Driver kit. It comes with two programs: 1) A Loader Module for Art Department Professional which lets you scan directly from ADPro. 2) A Stand-Alone Version (of the above mentioned loader module) which scans directly to disk (requires near zippo memory) and does not require ADPro. If anyone has ever seen our first generation of scanner controller, this new generation incorporates all the lessons we've learned in our three years as the Amiga's only provider of color scanner software. I think you'll agree that we have something to be proud of in the new scanner software. The Driver kit also includes all the interfacing hardware you'll need to hook the ES-300C up to an A500, A2X00 or A3000. A1000 owners need a parallel port converter. The list price for the kit is $200. Also shipping is the controller kit for the Phovos 300C. Next month we start shipping controller kits for the Sharp series of scanners (the JX-100, JX-300, 450 and 600). pk -- Perry Kivolowitz, ASDG Inc. ``We look for things. Things that make us go.''
