Digital ReeL Overview

Digital ReeL is a Boise, Idaho microfilm conversion to PDF solution ideal for businesses, organizations, and agencies with large libraries of legacy microfilm records. BMI will scan your physical microfilm (or microfiche) to virtual, digital microfilm at our California location. If your records must remain on-site or in the state of Idaho, we can come on-site or work with a regional partner. Our Boise, Idaho microfilm conversion to PDF solution includes a viewer, enabling users to easily access your digital microfilm records. In addition to printing from the application, researchers can easily email or save TIFF or PDF records.

Digital ReeL is as much as 50% less expensive than other microfilm conversion to PDF services available today because we price per microfilm roll (not per individual image on a microfilm roll). With customers nationwide, Digital ReeL is ideal for infrequently accessed records that continue to be archived on physical microfilm.

Cloud Hosting and Installed Options 

The Digital ReeL Boise, Idaho microfilm conversion to PDF solution is available as both a cloud solution and an on premise solution. With the cloud option, we not only perform the microfilm to PDF service, but also host your digital records at our data center. Users access records by logging into the Digital ReeL web interface. With the on premise solution, we complete the microfilm conversion to PDF service and then deliver your digital records and the Digital ReeL application to your IT administrator(s). Users then access records from a system managed by your team.

Microfilm Conversion to PDF Accuracy

Our microfilm conversion to PDF service creates a digital replica of your physical microfilm. We scan the entire microfilm roll and because of this, no individual records or details on the microfilm are lost. Our microfilm conversion to PDF solution is unique because we digitally preserve your microfilm archive exactly as it appeared in its physical state.

Easy Retrieval with Online Viewer

The Digital ReeL microfilm conversion to PDF solution includes an online application that imitates microfilm retrieval from a physical reader. Users access virtual microfilm rolls from a computer and eliminate the hassles that often come with handling physical microfilm and out-of-date reader printers.

Combines Full-Text Search With Your Existing Indexing Methodology

Digital ReeL combines full-text searching capabilities with the utilization of your existing indexing methodology to enable users to quickly find information. Digital ReeL supports existing micrographic indexing methodologies such as book/page, case number, roll/frame and more. Users can search for records using your existing schema and can also locate documents using key words and numbers.

Export Records to PDF or TIFF

After users find the records they are looking for, they can adjust the quality of the image using grayscale and then crop and frame images to be exported in standard TIFF and PDF formats. Users can email or print one or multiple records from the interface.

Why invest in outdated physical microfilm reader/printers when you can improve record retrieval and usability by scanning the microfiche? If you’re frustrated with your microfiche reader/printer but think it would cost too much to digitally scan your records, we encourage you to look at Digital ReeL – the affordable and easy-to-use microfilm reader/printer replacement solution.
