Document Conversions
Focusing in the preservation and accessibility of archival documents and specializing in the delivery
of complete, accurate & high quality conversions with custom enhancements for various forms of
original documents, we offer four categories of conversion services.

Paper to Electronic Files (efiles) - Utilizing latest technological tools, years of conversion
experience and rigorous quality assurance procedures to ensure high quality image files and/or
accurate OCR files, two types of paper-to-efiles conversion services are available:

Paper to Image Files

Source paper documents can be optically scanned

(digitized)

into

image

files

(PDF, TIFF, etc.) for

archiving and retrieval. When these electronic image files are

supplemented with properly

designed indexing algorithms and text-searching retrieval

programs, the source paper

documents become an

efficient

electronic library of accessible

documents.

Paper to Editable Files via Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

When

both

editability

and

searchability

are required

in the electronic files, the scanned texts

can be

OCRed and

thoroughly proofread-&-edited before converting to PDF or word

processor

format.

Source paper documents for conversion can be single sheets, foldout sheets, index cards, bound
volumes, newspapers, etc.. Output electronic file formats can be PDF, TIFF, MS Word, WordPerfect,
Plain Text, RTF, etc.

Microform to Electronic Files - Utilizing digital photography and frame-by-frame precision
scanning mode together with rigorous quality assurance procedures, each microfilm frame is
digitized and converted to the required electronic page with the best possible clarity and legibility.
Furthermore, the frame-by-frame scanning operation guarantees that every frame is digitized in its
entirety so there is no incomplete frame image nor missing frame image.

Microform of all types (16mm, 35mm or 3M microfilm rolls, microfiche, aperture cards) can be
digitized, de-speckled and converted to either PDF or TIFF files. Optionally, index-and-retrieval
system can be designed and incorporated with the scanned data base.

Technical Documents to Electronic Files - Utilizing solid state CIS technology scanner with true
600 dpi optical resolution, bi-level adaptive thresholding & auto on-line optimization together with
rigorous quality assurance procedures, each technical document is digitized and converted to the
required electronic page with needle-sharp, high-quality image.

Technical documents (architectural, engineering, construction drawings, maps, newsprint & court
documents, etc.) of up to 40” wide can be scanned and converted to either PDF or TIFF files.
Optionally, index-&-retrieval system can be designed and incorporated with the scanned data base.
