TWAIN is in the process of implementing a Self-Certification Program. This program will have tools available to test TWAIN drivers for compliancy. We don’t have an exact release date at this time, but it will be before the end of may this year.
That is great news! Let us know how we can participate.
Any chance of TWG providing application self-certification also? As a DS developer, I’ve seen some pretty flaky apps. Even major ones like Photoshop have compliance issues.

At this time there is nothing in the application arena. I’ll ask at the next TWG technical meeting though.
I will keep you posted on the self-certification stuff.Hilary

Any update on the status of the Self-Certification Program?
ISIS drivers are sable but so is good Twaindrivers also. Twaindrivers for “professional” scanners are stable and good. No limitations in Twain, just how much work the manufacturer puts into the driver. Usually there is no problem controlling all features by Twain, specific features are controlled by custom capabilities. Twain has often a bad reputation of beeing less stable than ISIS . but as far as i am concerned, the most prominent difference is that these two formats can not be scanned in one scanner, in other words, isis need a professional scanner while twian picture needs another.
A mature and robust ISIS scanning application should be compatible with the latest ISO standard and support for direct in-memory scanning and direct in-memory scanning. What’s more, with the implemantation of an image processing add-on, advanced image processing and clean-up functions are provided, like deskew, binarize, despeckle.
The latest comparison I found between TWAIN and ISIS is here.
There is a visualized data comparison here: http://twainscanning.com/best-document-scanning-technology/ .
