How Document Scanning Services Work

Your documents will be converted using document and data capture. Document capture creates a digital copy of the document using PDF, JPEG, or TIFF file formats. Data capture extracts certain data from a document and organizes the information into a database. We will use the capture technology that makes the most sense for your business.

We will also take care of the following steps to help you begin to prepare for your scanning project:

We remove bindings to prepare documents for scanning.
We scan both single and double-sided documents.
We index by page or by entire document, whichever you choose.
We offer Optical Character Recognition (OCR), making your documents editable.
We put your converted files on the medium of your choice; including CDs, DVDs, or cloud storage.
We can accommodate special requests, just give us the details when you request a free quote by calling (518) 621-3355 or filling out the form.

How to Count Your Documents

Counting your documents will give you a better idea of the size of your scanning project and help your provider give you an accurate price quote. Counting your documents is easy. Count the number of banker’s boxes, files, or inches of paper you have. A standard banker’s box (12.5″W x 15.5″D x 10.5″H) can fit 2,000 to 2,500 sheets of paper. A larger file box (15″W x 24″D x 10.5″H) can hold 4,000 to 4,500 sheets of paper. On a shelf, you can typically fit 150 to 200 sheets of paper per inch. Multiply those numbers by the number of boxes, files, or inches.

For example, if you have 3 banker’s boxes full of paper, you will calculate: 3 boxes x 2500 sheets of paper = 7500 documents.

The number will vary, but an estimate is all you will need to move forward. Learn more about counting your documents here.
