Book Scanning

Manuscripti can scan virtually any book to a very high quality. Using our unique Digibook TM technology books of almost unlimited size can be scanned without resulting in any damage to the book. We can scan books in binary (black and white), grey scale and colour, as tiffs or jpegs.

Our DigibookTM scanners are fitted with specially designed book cradles, which compensate for the thickness of book. The book is scanned on the cradle as if it is open to be read and any page curvature can be corrected using our specialist graphical software.

The digitised pages can then be used for printing facsimiles, archiving, indexing, creating virtual books, uploading on to the internet, or just stored somewhere safe on DVDs, CDs, data cartridges or external USB hard disc drives to ensure you always have a copy.
