ARTWORK DIGITIZATION

Are you an artist or photographer? Looking to sell your work?

We copy and digitize your art by either scanning it (flexible substrates up to A0) or using high resolution photographic digitization in our studio.

Files are created at 300 dpi in CMYK as jpg – if you require a different file type or RAW – please ask.

Once we have a master file of your artwork digitized, we can create prints, cards and calendars for you to sell.

includes post-processing to create a print ready file and a proof print at A4

Digitization and recreation of an historic leather-bound personal memoir

In danger of falling apart, this unique leather bound personal memoir was carefully photographed on a copy stand page by page. The resulting digital files were laid out into a new document to recreate the original book and printed for distribution to family and friends. The reprinted copy allowed proper investigation of the contents without damaging the original, which was presented to The East Anglian Archive. There was also a second photo album recreated the same way.
