Ring in the New Year and bring your office into 2018 with microfiche scanning from Resource Data Management. Since the mid-1800’s, Microfilm and Microfiche have been a reliable way to create a hard copy file for storage and saving documents. In fact, over the centuries they have proven essential to efficient information management. But with the advances in technology in converting data from Microfilm to a more serviceable format, such as TIF or PDF images, microfiche has become obsolete. Therefore, it is essential to your business and for all companies and government organizations to invest in microfilm and microfiche conversion. RDM offers microfiche conversion for New Jersey and the entire Tri-State area of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
Why the need to convert old microfiche documents to PDF?
It’s almost 2018! In many instances, old rolls of microfiche are not easily accessible and cannot be shared between various people within the organization. In addition, as time passes, the equipment, known as a Microfilm or Microfiche Reader, used to search for data on these rolls is damaged or unavailable, making access to the information nearly impossible. Microfiche conversion allows your employees to not only access documents more easily, but in some cases; it allows them to access them for the first time. Many employees these days are no longer trained or able to use old, antiquated machinery and are unfamiliar with microfiche in general. This is another reason microfiche conversion is necessary.
How does microfiche conversion work?
It’s easy! RDM helps clients to convert rolls of Microfilm and Microfiche jackets to images on CD, DVD, or online. We will index the Film or Fiche with keywords or index values, to help users to quickly locate and access the data for which they are looking. As the demand for immediate, shared access to information increases, RDM offers clients an easy method of changing this information to TIF or PDF images.
The results.
In short, when you provide immediate access to information that was once stored on Microfilm or Microfiche, your organization will be better equipped to address the needs of your end-user. Information can be searched and retrieved in seconds, without needing any specialized equipment. Additionally, data is more readily availability to help with audit and compliance requirements, such as the Freedom of Information Act.
