Archiving and Scanning Digitisation at Oxford Duplication Centre
CONVERTING NEWSPAPERS TO HIGH QUALITY DIGITAL FILES
Our historical newspaper scanning services are very popular in Oxfordshire and the surrounding areas. We provide for both corporate and private clients, to include educational and science sectors.
Our newspaper scanning service provides the customer with high quality and efficient digitisation of newspapers. We can offer scanning services for newspapers of different sizes, from tabloid to broadsheet size. Document scanning can be done in color ( for photo scanning ), grayscale or even black and white if you require. The scans will be converted to the desired file format, whether it’s PDF, Jpeg or Tiff.
We will scan your newspapers and crop each article separately. After that, we will OCR each article and deliver it to you via email or in other formats you request. This is a very good solution to efficiently browse through articles and content.
