Digitization Services
At Axis SoftMedia Inc., we specialize in providing cutting-edge digitization solutions to meet the diverse needs of our clients. As demand for high-quality digital conversion grows, we continue to expand our services to cover a broad range of applications. From preserving historical documents to optimizing corporate workflows, our comprehensive services ensure that your digitization projects are handled with precision from start to finish.
Bound Documents Whether you're digitizing library collections, corporate records, historic archives, lab notebooks, or magazines, we have the right equipment and expertise to protect your materials while delivering top-notch digital images. Our specialized cradle technology minimizes stress on book spines, preserving the integrity of each volume. For projects focused solely on content extraction through OCR, we also offer professional disbinding and re-binding services, ensuring the long-term preservation of your materials.
Loose Materials From mortgage documentation to personnel files, invoices, and legal records, loose materials require careful handling to ensure accurate digitization. Axis SoftMedia employs advanced cut-sheet and flatbed scanning technologies to capture every detail with precision. Depending on the item’s condition, we use Automatic Document Feeders (ADF) for faster processing or flatbed scanners for delicate items. Our services also include document preparation — such as staple removal, flattening dog-eared pages, and repairing tears — ensuring a smooth digitization process. Whether you need a one-time backlog conversion or ongoing scanning support, we provide tailored solutions to improve your workflow.
Microforms Preserve your microfilm and microfiche collections by converting them into easily accessible digital formats. Whether you have 16mm and 35mm film or 105mm fiche, our team ensures every frame is accurately captured without missing pages or improper cropping. We assess the condition of your microforms to determine whether scanning from the film or the original source documents is the best approach. Additionally, we provide Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for searchable content and NDNP-compliant files for historical newspaper preservation.
Audio and Video From VHS tapes to HD video, and from reel-to-reel audio to cassettes and CDs, we can convert nearly any audio or video format into digital files. Our trusted partnership with one of the industry's oldest and most renowned media conversion providers gives our clients access to expert services at competitive prices. We oversee every project step, ensuring high-quality results while simplifying the process with a single point of contact.
