Scanning
Quite frequently we receive scan orders
with items too large to flatbed scan. This is where
the studio scanning process becomes invaluable.
Our experienced photography staff carefully digitally
photograph oversized items for Giclée printing,
Lambda printing, restoration (especially oval convex
vintage prints) and other needs requiring large
MB scans. When requesting studio scans, and
to help us provide
you with the best scan for your needs,
we suggest you consider the following questions:
| What are your output
(or printing) size requirements? |
| |
Physical size: ie 8x10, 16x20,
20x30 etc |
| |
DPI (Dots Per Inch): 100 DPI, 300 DPI, etc.
When discussing DPI issues, be aware (depending on your output method,
or how you're going to use the scan) that bigger isn't necessarily
always better. If you're unsure of your DPI needs we suggest you
consult one of our Digital Specialists. |

|
| What file format will
work the best for your specific needs? |
| |
TIFF
Tagged-Image File Format (TIFF), is used to exchange files between
applications and computer platforms. TIFF is a flexible bitmap
image format supported by virtually all paint, image-editing, and
page-layout applications.
We suggest this format for most printing and
design needs.

JPEG
Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) format is commonly used to
display photographs on the World Wide Web and other online services.
JPEG format supports CMYK, RGB, and Grayscale color modes, but
does not support alpha channels.
JPEG retains all color information in an RGB
image but compresses file size by selectively
discarding data thus a smaller file size is
attained. You should be aware, however, that
the loss of image quality is possible with
this compression process.
We suggest this format for scans that are
earmarked for web usage or Powerpoint presentations
and etc.
