Our microfilm scanning service converts all microforms into an easily accessible digital archive and with our “Two for One” image offer at a cost you can afford.

All too often valuable microfilm records are stored in old inaccessible archives, using old fashioned microfilm reader technology is time consuming and costly. Consequently this results in many records not being examined carefully enough. Often the conversion costs and integrating images into an EDM system has, to date, been too expensive.

From all types of microfilm, microfiche, microfilm jackets and half-plate negatives, our unique scanning technology converts your microfilm archive into exceptionally high quality electronic images for seamless integration into an up-to-date searchable archive, in a time and at a cost our competitors can rarely match.

Inherently the quality of microfilm varies considerably particularly when fiche have been updated, contain both 16mm and 35mm images and where text or colour of the originals were of varying contrast.
