Other elements of the scanning process

Document Preparation

Document Preparation is an essential and time consuming component of the scanning process. Our staff members are highly trained and detailed oriented individuals who are meticulous in handling your mission-critical documents. Prior to scanning, all documents must be prepped. The document preparation process includes: removing staples, paperclips, tape, mending torn pages, and removing documents from binders.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and Indexing Services

Scanned documents are put through an imaging process called Optical Character Recognition (OCR), which allows you to perform full-text searches.

Documents are also assigned index fields. Index fields are keywords related to your documents that allow you to perform template searches.

These image formats include TIFF, JPEG, PDF, Laserfiche, etc. We can also take these images and make them available on multiple forms of media including CD, DVD, removable disc or host them on the Internet.
