What is Microfilm

Microfilm simply allows the user to film a document and store it for later retrieval and review. Microfilm can be used for conventional record-keeping programs to provide space savings and security, as well as, for micro publishing, to publish and distribute information much faster and less expensively or to replace or supplement impact printers in your computer operations.

How does This Happen? The camera takes a picture of the document and transfers the image to film which is processed either on microfiche or roll film. The customer is then issued their processed film (microfiche or rollfilm, with duplicates for back-up and they have immediate access to documents.
