Micro Image currently assists governments, libraries, museums, galleries, schools, hospitals and official organisations to digitise back catalogues, archives and important pieces of history.

Artworks

Micro Image is equipped with advanced art scanning technology. All of our staff members have been trained in the correct handling of professional artworks. Our preservation and extraction techniques deliver ultra high resolution up to 10,000dpi images. Depending on your needs we can scan large, medium and small artworks.

Our specialist large flatbed and overhead camera scanners maintain the integrity of the medium so it is returned to you in original condition. We’ve helped multiple galleries, artists and private collectors digitise their entire collections. Ask us for an obligation free quote today.

Fragile Books & Documents

At Micro Image, we’ve been scanning fragile documents and books for over 40 years, so you know your history is in safe hands. Our specialised digitisation techniques combine correct handling with dedicated scanning equipment to keep your rare and precious volumes in original condition. Part of this process means ensuring information is accurately and properly captured the first time, so there is no more handling than necessary.

Whether your documentation is torn, faded, illegible or fragile, digital preservation by Micro Image means you can examine and share your documentation now and far into the future. A high resolution digital image of your document or text can also allow you to see information more clearly. We’ve assisted in digitisation projects for the National Archives of Australia, local, state and federal governments, libraries, museums, universities, schools and businesses.
