archSCAN, LLC will scan large and small format documents, blueprints, maps, books, historic records, and other documents.  We have large and small document scanners at our facility and may also provide on-site scanning services.  We help you manage your documents and information such as document archiving, document lifecycle management, revision control, scan to CD, and web access to documents.

Documents are scanned to full scale (100%) at a minimum of 300 dpi to guarantee the documents are viewable to the smallest detail. They are converted to a PDF (Adobe) or to a TIFF (Windows Imaging) in a Read-only format to protect the documents from being distorted or manipulated for archiving purposes.

Small Document Scanning
We have the capacity to scan over 10,000 pages per machine per day into most formats including TIFF, PDF, and JPG.

Large Format Drawing Scanning
Our large format scanners can cope with drawings of up to 36" wide and any length. We have the capacity to scan approximately 1000 drawings a day.

Adobe Acrobat/PDF Services
archSCAN recommends scanning documents into PDF for several reasons.  PDFs are more user-friendly, smaller file size, and are viewable from any computer via the free program, Adobe Reader.   archSCAN converts documents into single or multi-page PDF files. We use bookmarks to make the documents more user-friendly.  We also incorporate keywords into the metadata to enable specific search capabilities.
