    All of the links I’ve found to the TWAIN toolkit for Mac no longer work; I’m doing some development on an app with scanner access and I wanted the ‘sample source’ that would allow me to mimic the presence of a scanner for now. Even the twain.org site search seems to use Google, whose outdate index for twain.org results in 404s.

    So — where do I get this toolkit now? Does it still work on OSX 10.7 (Lion)?

    I found this project on SourceForge via twain.org:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/twain-samples/files/TWAIN%202%20Sample%20Data%20Source/

    From the installation instructions (at the above URL) it mentions Linux and Windows, but not OS X.

    In the past, Apple provide sample code for a TWAIN app and a DS in their Dev Center. Now there’s no useful information there.

    It seems Apple is pushing developers to switch to ICA drivers. 10.7 does include the TWAIN framework (with a Mac-specific TWAIN.h file) but the way it’s going that may disappear soon.

    I have checked the source file and there is nothing mentioned about the installation on Mac. I think you have put some wrong information. It works fines on Windows. However, I need it to install the drivers on my Mac. I hope there is better resolution for this.
