Cybernet Software Systems has made available a free utility called <A HREF="http://www.cybernetsoft.com/">ScanNotes</A> to scan images directly into Lotus Notes applications. ScanNotes allows scanning images from a scanner directly into a Notes richtext field. As a Client Addin , two menu items Acquire and Select Source are added in the Actions Menu upon installation. Acquire is used to scan an image and import it to the current richtext field. It will work only if the current document is in edit mode and the current context is richtext field. Select Source is used to select the scanner driver to be used for Acquire.
