Job-Ready, Prepared Scans Raw Scans Frontier Scanning

Vision Graphics uses state-of-the-art film and high-end flatbed scanners to scan your images – transparency, negative and artwork originals – to suit a variety of requirements. All scans (except Multimedia and Frontier) are supplied as TIFF files.

JOB -READY PREPARED SCANS
These scans are of the highest quality in all areas. Colour, density, contrast and sharpness issues are addressed as well as dust and dirt removal. Additional work required will be charged as retouching system time.

RAW SCANS (TRANSPARENCY, B&W NEGATIVE AND FLAT ARTWORK UP TO A3 ONLY – EXCLUDES COLOUR NEGATIVE)
These excellent value scans offer the same high quality using the same equipment but without the fine-tuning features applied in our fully prepared job-ready scans. No dust removal, colour or density correction is included. Ideal for those planning to carry out their own final image preparation. These scans offer an approximate 40% SAVING off our fully prepared scans.

• Final scanned size refers to the intended size of image output.
• Scans larger than A0 by quotation
• Larger quantities by quotation
• Quantities over 21 include cost of CD writing
• For original artwork larger than A3 see Digital and Photographic copies

Normal service: 2 - 3 days. Express service: Add 50% (subject to workload)

All scans done by Vision Graphics are written to CD.
Scans done by VG for Digital Print Output are kept on file for one week only, with the exception of Frontier scans, which are deleted straight after printing.
DPO scans for inkjet print output are saved as RGB TIFF at between 120 and 300dpi resolution (dependent on the selected print output size).
Images scanned and burned can include individual file names – consult Production Managers for a quote.
RGB scans are best suited to photographic output, web usage and monitor viewing. CMYK scans are best suited to pre-press and most standard printer applications.

FRONTIER SCANNING SERVICES

Economical scans available from 35mm to medium format, colour and B&W, negative and transparency. These scans are saved as JPEGs and are burned to CD (readable on both Windows and Mac). Frontier scans are optimised for Frontier Digital Minilab print output.

Vision Graphics offers three levels of scans through the Frontier Digital Minilab:

20MB
RGB files sized to 46.6" x 31.11" @72dpi (equivalent to 11.2" x 7.47" @ 300dpi) in size. They are the scans we recommend for clients who may want reprints or enlargements up to 10" x 15".

All scans saved as JPEG format
•  All scans are supplied to the client on CD-ROM (readable on both Mac and Windows platforms)
