Microfiche Scanning Services: Digitize Your Archive and Save Space

If your organization is overwhelmed with 5-channel microfiche jackets or COM fiche, The Scanning Company can help you convert those collections into easily accessible digital files. Our advanced microfiche scanning services turn vast amounts of microfiche images and microform cards into organized digital archives, making important data and valuable records available whenever you need them. In today’s digital age, moving to a digital format is the clear way to protect your documents, improve access, and save valuable office space.

Microfiche, like microfilm rolls and aperture cards, was once the preferred way to store important documents and business records. However, handling physical fiche can be challenging, and outdated microfiche readers often make research slow and difficult. Our microfiche scanning service solves these problems by creating digital images from your microfiche jackets, microfilm, and aperture cards—so your organization can easily access, share, and store important information.

Why Microfiche Digitization Matters

Today’s digital world requires instant access to information. Microfiche scanning services are essential for businesses, libraries, and government agencies that need to convert microfiche jackets, microfilm, and other microform images into searchable, secure digital archives. Digital files don’t just save space; they also extend the shelf life of valuable records, making it easy to protect and retrieve important documents for years to come.

Physical microfiche and microfilm have a limited shelf life and can become damaged or unreadable over time. Our digitization technology ensures your important data is protected, indexed, and stored in a format that is both cost-effective and easily accessible for your clients, staff, or researchers.

Our Microfiche Scanning and Conversion Process

We follow a careful process to deliver high quality, secure digital images from your physical fiche collections.

Consultation and Planning

Every project begins with understanding your organization’s unique needs. We consult with you to develop a plan that matches your workflow, compliance requirements, and budget. Our experience with large volumes of documents means you get the best results, whether you are digitizing a small business archive or a government collection.

Inspection and Preparation

Microfiche jackets and sheets are inspected and cleaned to remove dust and damage. Our technology is equipped to scan even fragile microfiche and microfilm, preserving valuable information and ensuring clear, readable digital images.

Scanning and Image Processing

Our microfiche scanners and software capture every frame at high resolution, using advanced algorithms for image detection, framing, and enhancement. Blip detection and grid alignment help us index large volumes of microfiche images for easy access and retrieval. Aperture card conversion services are also available, so your entire microform archive can be digitized in one project.

OCR and Indexing

If needed, Optical Character Recognition is applied to your scanned documents, making files keyword-searchable. We organize your digital archive by title, date, or any field you choose, so your staff and clients can find valuable records quickly.

Secure Delivery and Return

Once your project is complete, your digital files are delivered in your preferred format—PDF, TIFF, or JPEG—with options for encrypted cloud delivery, secure external drives, or direct upload to your network. Physical documents can be returned or securely shredded, always at an affordable price and with a clear audit trail.
