When Starting a Document Scanning Project Keep the Following in Mind
Aside from
pages vs. images and DPI there are a lot of other basic details to consider
when starting a conversion project. The
current state of the documents is one of these details, as well as, required
end state of the source documents.
The current state of the source
documents plays a huge role in the total cost of a document scanning project.
The current state of the source documents is referring to many, many things. To
start: how old are the documents? Are there tears or rips? Have the pages yellowed? etc.; the older the documents the more gently they have to be handled, which
increases time and costs. The tears and rips have to be properly taped to
ensure legibility of all information, which also increases effort and time. If
the pages have yellowed there has to be a determination if this is a
preservation project or a conversion project. If it is preservation, many times
an exact copy of the source document is desired, meaning the yellow needs to be
captured. If it is a conversion project, chances are the information on the
page is most important and certain scanner settings can be used to optimize the
desired information. Both will require different tactics.
