Flatbed Scans

Print Scans

Note: It is possible to scan prints larger then this size in sections and DRC'd together, but I would recommend a Digital Capture for the best result.

Size Requirements - Print scans do not have a minimum size requirement, but have a maximum size requirement of 12" x 17"

Standard Scans - 600ppi

Custom Scans - Up to 1200 PPI

Film Scans

Film can be scanned at the following sizes
