Aperture Card Scanning Company

Generation Imaging is an . The aperture card scanning process is similar to but not exactly the same as microfilm scanning, , document scanning, and slide scanning. It is similar because the process converts analog media to a digital image. In the case of apertures,  generally speaking they contain one 35mm film strip. In fact, some people call the process 35mm microfilm aperture card scanning.

Usually apertures contain a rectangular slot with a 35mm drawing pasted in it. These 35m frames are usually maps, blueprints, , and technical schematics. However, there are also cases where there are 16mm strips or 35mm strip which contain deed records or other types of 8.5 x 11 or 8.5 x 14 documents.

In other words, aperture card scanning involved the digitization of A-size, B-Size, C-Size, D-Size, and E-size documents, with some variations and subtypes in-between those standard sizes. There are cases where there are multiple 16mm frames in the rectangular window. These can be digitized all in one image, or manually separated into individual images. Many apertures have a Hollerith code (computer punches). The Hollerith code contains data, which usually correlates to the information on the aperture headers.

Aperture card scanning can result in PDF, TIFF, or JPEG images. Generation Imaging can create black & white images or greyscale versions. Images can be single pages (one frame = one image) or multi-page (PDF or TIFF) grouped by drawing number. Databases or spreadsheets can be linked to each image with their drawing or Hollerith information. Filenames can be named based on the Hollerith code or indexed by header or image.

Convert aperture cards to digital image

Many organizations  handle aperture cards on a daily basis to access their information- usually engineering drawings, building , or title records. Although this has been a common practice for many years, aperture card scanning technologies has been changing this dynamic. If you use aperture cards to store your documents, you are probably thinking there has to be a better way.

The process of digitizing aperture cards has been around for some time now, only a few well established microfiche conversion organizations- like this - have the required equipment and knowledge to safeguard your apertures and to achieve the best possible digital . This digital imaging company will transfer the information you have on your apertures to a digital format, such as TIFF, JPEG, PDF, etc. Digital conversion is ideal for storing and retrieving documents, especially since aperture card scanners can read Hollerith code punches.

In the meantime, while you are still using your aperture cards as your document source, make sure you do all you can to conserve the integrity of the cards. This is the first step in aperture card preparation. Keep the cards in a temperature and humidity control environment. The  frame also has a sensitive side which is called the emulsion side. This is what makes up the image on the film. It is very sensitive to scratches.
Lastly, there is the issue of time. If your aperture cards are beginning to smell like vinegar, you need to consider document imaging as a way to preserve the information. The smell you sense may be the natural process of your cards decomposing. If you do nothing, you may lose all your data.
