Microfilm Scanning
The scanning process depends on the nature of your requirements and the type of microfilm or microfiche you have. By assessing the purpose of your microfilm conversion to electronic format we can offer the right service for your needs. For example, if you have a set of microfiches which you currently view using the film or fiche reader but feel that it is very time consuming - our microfiche/microfilm scan to CD service can fulfil your requirements. On other hand, if you have a large archive of microfilm which contains corporate historical records which need to be quite frequently accessed by various different departments - our microfilm and microfiche scanning and conversion to an electronic library of fully indexed and searchable files would be ideal for this scenario.
The final scanned images (if originally microfilmed to a good standard) will be of the same high quality as the original documents.
Scan Index Process
Further to the microfilm and microfiche scanning process, all the scanned documents or drawings can be indexed for a fast and efficient search. For example, we can index your scanned microfilm or microfiche electronic files by the following categories as well as fully text searchable PDF files
- Reference Number
- Client Name
- Drawing Number / Part Name
- Title
- Date
Files indexing helps users to identify and search files using different categories listed above. Scanned microfilm and microfiche images can also be converted using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to editable formats such as, Microsoft Word, Excel or CSV format and searchable PDF. This technique is very useful for companies who are in the Research, Legal, Pharmaceutical and Editorial fields
