Kogios5 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I'm new to Affinity so I may be missing something. I thought I could just use Aquire Image and scan a document into Affinity Photo, (a bit like photoshop) but what I am getting on screen seems like a triple image overlapped in black and white instead of colour. Can anyone help please? See below scanned image compared with actual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Gabe Posted April 30, 2018 Staff Share Posted April 30, 2018 Hi @Kogios5, Welcome to the forums. Affinity does not have any built-in drivers, and it's purely relying on the drivers you have already installed. Can you scan properly with the dedicated software for your scanner? Thanks, Gabe.

Kogios5 Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 Thanks Gabe I thought perhaps I could add a driver as a plug in? I can scan an image ok on my printer and open It in Affinity. I was just trying to make the job shorter as in Photoshop which I have just given up using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Gabe Posted April 30, 2018 Staff Share Posted April 30, 2018 You cannot really add a driver as a plugin unless the driver itself it's in a "plugin format". Because we don't have a dedicated tool for scanning, it's hard to say what's wrong. We're just relying on the drivers you have. I suggest you scan the files separately. Perhaps you can try to see if there's an update available for your scanner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
