Use From Scanner or Camera 
to display the program that is used to acquire pictures from a scanner, a digital camera or another suitable device. Only devices that use Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) can be used to obtain pictures.
WIA (Windows Image Acquisition) is a standard method for transferring pictures from the device’s scanning or downloading program to another program, in this case the mySewnet™ Digitizing module of the mySewnet™ Embroidery Software. If the manufacturer provides the appropriate software components needed for WIA compliance, these should have been installed when the device was installed.
Each scanner or digital camera has its own program that is used to scan or download pictures. Refer to the manual or online help provided with the program for instructions, if required. When the device and its software finish processing the Picture, it will be shown in the Choose Picture page.
Preview and Name
Under the preview pane is a box for the name of the chosen file. If the picture is a scanned image then the box will contain the words Scanned Picture.
