Photo to Digital Order Planner
We want ordering your photo to digital services from us to be as easy as possible. Below you will find the steps for placing your order and some other suggestions that may help us to create the exact results you desire in your photo to digital project results.
1. Decide What Resolution You Need
2. Choose Your File Format ... JPEG or TIFF
3. Choose Your Storage Medium ... CD or Data DVD
4. Select Your Pricing and Options
5. If Desired, Organize Your Prints
If you wish to edit the digital image files yourself or you just need your photos scanned economically, package up your prints and send them to us. You will receive high quality digital image files on a CD or data DVD.
If, however, you are looking for a completely finished project when you receive your CD or data DVD, investing some time to organize your photos to digital project will not only help assure the most pleasing results, but could also reduce the costs.
If your photos are in albums, you may want to remove them from the albums. While we are happy to do this for you, it increases the handling time to process your order, and we must charge accordingly ( 5 cents per photo removed). In addition, albums add weight and bulk to the order increasing shipping costs.
Next, you may want to organize your photographs by year, by event, by subject, etc. For instance, let's say you would like to have your photographs organized by year, and you have selected our bulk pricing option. Sort your photos by year. Wrap each set of photographs with a simple piece of paper labeled with the year, and slip them all into your Ziploc® bags. We will create separate folders for each group of photographs you have assembled. In this way, your CD or data DVD will be organized in a way that makes finding and using the photos much easier for you.
Naming of your digital images is another factor to consider. Included in our pricing is auto file naming. We will organize your photos into folders per your instructions numbering each image file within the folder chronologically. If you prefer to have the image files identified by subject, etc., we offer this option. If you choose this option, you must label each photograph with the file name you prefer. We recommend labeling on the back of the print using labels as the labels allow you to write in pencil. Use care if using ink! If you stack photos with wet ink on the back, you may damage the face of other photographs with ink smudges.
Need a only a few enlargements from the photos in your project? Separate them from the rest of your order. You can request just those photographs to be scanned at higher resolution to keep the cost of your project in line.
Lots of color photographs of people? If your project contains a large number of color photographs of people, redeye reduction is probably worth considering. If you select bulk pricing, redeye correction is priced as a flat fee. If you choose individual pricing, you will pay for redeye correction per print. In this case, it would be best if you separate the photos you want corrected from those that require no adjustment.
Again, if you wish to edit the digital image files yourself or just need them scanned, package up your prints and send them to us. You will receive high quality digital image files on a CD or data DVD.
As you can see, a little planning on your part before you send us your photos to digital project can save you money as well as assure you the quality results you're looking for in the finished product.
