Is it really that good?

comparisson

How do you compare against others ?

We come from a professional scanning background. While other vendors will market a very small price per page, and then charge you large fees for other so called options, we will offer the entire package. Things like deskew, background cleaning, unsharp masking are mandatory when trying to obtain a high quality result. They don’t do that. Just request some scanning samples from us before you order, and you’ll see the difference.

Will my books be affected during scanning ?

No, they won’t. Choosing the non-destructive option (enabled by default everytime you order) means that the books will only be scanned with professional book scanners, which don’t hurt the book. Also, our scanners use cold light, which is less dangerous to books than ambient light is.

Do you also scan very old books and manuscripts ?

Yes we do. Our equipments were built just for this type of jobs. We highly encourage you to send this kind of material to us.

How do you scan the books?

We take pride in using the best technology for each type of document in part. As you may know, books can be scanned in 2 ways:

  • Non-Destructive – The book remains INTACT. It’s scanned on special book scanners, designed with book cradles to support the book while scanning, it’s not opened wide, just a little.
  • Destructive – It’s 40% cheaper. We cut the binding of the book and scan it with a high speed ADF scanner.
