Service

Our service is simple - we scan photos. However, scanning a photo requires a lot of conditions that many of our competitors like to charge you extra for. By choosing our service, we include all of the following features at no extra charge to you.

400 dots per inch – A standard 300dpi scan is necessary to print the exact same size of the scanned photograph. By offering 400 dpi scans, we give you a higher resolution image that gives you the freedom to crop out unwanted parts of the photo, or simply print it larger than the original without getting "the jaggies" or a reduction in color saturation.

Generous size requirements – You can send us any scan that is sized between 1.1” x 2.7” up to 12” x 18”. Send us any photos or document within this size, and we will digitize it for you.

Documents of all types – you can send us anything from photos to newspapers, certificates, greeting cards, or whatever you would like. We scan any document.

Photo cropping and straightening – after we scan your photos, a Scanapix employee will go through each and every photo to ensure our quality approval standards are met. We make sure each scan is ready to be shared without you having to do any extra cropping or straightening work.

Sharpening and clarity adjustments – Our professional photo software will adjust clarity and sharpen each photo to provide you with the best quality output.

JPG or TIFF – You can choose the type of file you would like. JPG's and TIFF’s have their own advantages and disadvantages. Generally, JPG's are best for the average user due to its popularity amongst web sites and other utilities and small size. However, it is a format that will lose some quality if the file is altered. TIFF's are more popular for high end graphic needs. TIFF's are the absolute best quality that does not lose any image quality with compression. However, this file type is not usable amongst most image sharing websites and the files are much larger than JPG's.

Other services - Scanapix is a photo scanning company and that is what we strive to be the best at in the industry. However, we do offer every type of digitization services for any need you may have.
