Microfilm & Microfiche Scanning

Microfilms and microfiches are very usefull when you need to archive and preserve documents for the future however it creates major problems when finding the document you need on a fiche or microfilm, it can take a long time because only one person can use the film or fiche at any given time.

Microfilm Scanning Service

This process allows the data, currently only accessed by ageing and obsolete readers, to be accessed by multiple users from their PC’s, and documents retrieved using our indexing service. 



These can be TIFF, JPEG or PDF, which are computer files used to store pictures or graphics. We also use PDF (Portable Document Format) which are designed for easy printing and sharing. This will help you to find the required document instantly and can be shared between multiple users.

Microfiche Scanning Service

Whilst microfiches offer a fairly compact form of storage they require expensive readers and printers which can only be used by one person and regularly break down!

Unless you also have backup copies stored in a fire safe or off-site then they are also just as prone to disaster as the original documents. 
EDS can scan your microfiches and archive them with all your other documents so any user can access them instantly from their computer.
