Release Maarch Capture Connector 1.0 beta
Maarch Team is pleased to annouce the release of Maarch Capture Connector 1.0 beta, its new connector between your scanner, your PC, and Maarch solutions.
Maarch Capture Connector (MCC) is the replacement for Maarch Scansnap Connector (MSC). MSC has been entirely rewritten in PHP. There are multiple for that :
- Because of its name, MSC was (too) often considered to be only compatible with Fujitsu Scansnap scanners
- It was written in VB6, which is neither free (as in "free speech"), nor supported by Microsoft
- It was not portable
So here is the good news:
- MCC is fully compatible with any scanner, and any PDF-Generators (such as PDF Creator)
- MCC can (in theory) work on Windows, Linux and MacOS X
- It has some great new features :
- A new architecture with client and server components
- Support for Proxies
- Support for secured protocol (HTTPS)
- A new "Form Mode": if enabled, you will be prompted for a few basic information after your document is scanned, and before it is sent to the server. These information include: the department to affect the document to, the priority, etc.
Keep in mind that this is a beta release. Even if it is quite stable, it has to be heavily tested. If you find any bug, please report it on the forum (http://forum.maarch.org).
