About ScanGear Toolbox CS

ScanGear Toolbox CS (and thereafter ScanGear Toolbox) is a stand-alone utility

to fax programs, attach to an e-mail message or copy them directly to printers.

ScanGear Toolbox can also scan an image, automatically start a program and
send the scanned image to that program with the click of a single button.
