All NISCA Products are Now TWAIN Compatible

CARROLLTON, Texas (May 10, 1993)- NISCA Incorporated, developer of the
first true gray scale hand held scanner and the world's first portable,
sheet fed, true gray scale scanner, announces that development is complete
on the TWAIN source for all its products. The TWAIN drivers are available
directly form NISCA for only S 19.95. Registered owners of the NISCAN/GS
for Windows, Spectra for Windows, and NISCAN/GS Plus will soon be
receiving information on how to request the driver for their scanners.

TWAIN is a standard for scanner drivers that has been established by a
consortium of scanner industry manufacturers and software developers so
that users can scan directly from any TWAIN compatible application. TWAIN
acts as a universal interconnect between both Microsoft Windows and
Macintosh software applications and image devices. "What this means to
consumers is that they can use their scanners with more applications and
they don't have to worry about the type of device, or which particular
device they are using with their software." says Tai Nakamura, President
of NISCA Incorporated.

The NISCA's TWAIN drivers have been successfully tested with the following
