Hi MAANIK,

You might consider to use ScannerJS, which allows one to scan documents from TWAIN scanners in browsers like IE, Chrome and Firefox using JavaScript and upload to the server-side, like PHP as you mentioned.

Visit the https://github.com/Asprise/scannerjs.javascript-scanner-access-in-browsers-chrome-ie.scanner.js for code samples.

On the server-side, you may handle the scanned documents like file uploads in your PHP script. Sample source code of PHP handling script: https://asprise.com/scan/applet/upload.php?action=source

The developer’s guide is available here.

You can use a 3rd party web-based TWAIN SDK like Dynamic Web TWAIN.

You can refer to the below blog post and try the sample code:

Dynamic Web TWAIN is not working for me.

The same question here: we need to integrate web scanning feature (web TWAIN) + OCR into our web-based app (Java EE based, runs on Linux). Any other suggestions which solutions could be considered?

Dynamic Web TWAIN – looks good, but as I understood its OCR module runs only on Windows OS.
ScannerJS from Asprise – also looks good, but way too costly!
FineReader solutions – we can not use due to suctions against Russia (we can not use SW from Russia)

Any other solutions left?

Thank you!
