Downloading Pictures 4-5

Insert Object Transfer
You can download an image directly from the camera into
Microsoft Word or PowerPoint
or any other application
that supports OLE (object linking and embedding) 2.0
by
inserting it as an object. (See page 4-12.)
Drag and Drop Transfer
You should check your system’s configuration before you
use drag and drop. This method works best on fast systems
that have a large amount of RAM. Your system also needs a
screen resolution of greater than 640
×
480. Drag and drop
allows you to grab a thumbnail from the EPSON Photo!
Camera screen and drop the image directly into your
document. (See page 4-13.)
NOTE
If you choose either the insert object transfer or the drag and drop
transfer, you may also want to save the file in a PhotoPC 500 album
as described on page 4-1. These methods allow the picture to appear
in your document, but do not save it as a separate file.
Acquiring Images with TWAIN Programs
Follow these steps to acquire photos from the camera using
TWAIN-compliant programs such as Adobe Photoshop
TM
or PhotoPC 500 imaging software. These steps are based on
these two programs, so your software may have different
commands or menus. See your software’s help or
documentation for more information.
