Fragile media typically by its nature of age and deterioration is usually feint.  To counter this, we digitise to the National Archive Standards, preparing high quality TIFF files before post producing these to your desired output PDF, PDF/A or PDF/OCR. JPEG options are available alongside the original archival TIFF files.        

*Due to the nature of bound books, not all digitisation is straightforward. Therefore
we may need to apply a service charge on more complex books. We will advise prior to estimate approval.
