Re: "EPSON GT 7000" scanner driver
have a look at vueScan from www.hamrick.com.
Best scanner software out there and it supports older scanners that don't have updated drivers for XP and/or Vista.
Well worth the $80- registration price. Well worth it.

Re: "EPSON GT 7000" scanner driver
I have not looked up price for the epson GT7000.
Many years ago Isabelle got her a really expensive scanner, worth € 429.99.
When XP Sp1 came around, the driver stopped working. DUH. It was an Epson, and they seemed to offer extended support for the lower class (sold in masses) and not for high end.
Many months later a new driver came up and I got it to work (some functions were still NO-GO).
SP2 came along.. Epson never posted a fix. That high end scanner ended in a tip.
Today's low end scanners cost a little as € 50. (and a € 69.00 priced model I saw last week has all the tools and addons for film etc.. and outperforms Isabelles' by a great margin.)
€ 50.00 is about $ 80?
why are these drivers not for public?

OEM scanner software for the most part, even Nikon and Epson, is crap. Doesn't even begin to come close to the electronic/optical capabilities of the hardware.
That's where vueScan comes in. Works well and gets the best possible results from your hardware.
Plus, one license and you're set for life for pretty much any scanner you'll ever buy. Or quantity of scanners.

TWAIN is just an interface/API.
But yes, vueScan will speak 'twain' as well as a pile of specialized protocols.
You can download a test-drive version and check it out for yourself. The list of supported scanners is pretty impressive.
Not too long ago I picked up a pair of Epson 3490 scanners for $20- and am driving them with vueScan.
Re: "EPSON GT 7000" scanner driver
I'm already runing VueScan and iIt works just fine.
BUT the problem is, when i run my ABBYY FineReader OCR, it not find any scanner.
I've to scan my document with VueScan to create a PDF file and then i can use my ABBYY FineReader OCR.

Re: "EPSON GT 7000" scanner driver
with distiller you can print to a PDF then use acrobat to OCR the PDF...
so scan then print... then open the pdf (that resulted from your print) with acrobat and run the OCR. save as pdf or export.
