Document Enhancement
Service includes straightening, focus/sharpen, contrast levels, cropping & resizing to keep file size to a minimum thus saving hard drive space. Below will be 4 original documents (left column) totaling by their original dimensions (length x width) before cropping/resizing combined file size = 4.75 MB, after enhancement, the same 4 documents (right column) the new combined file size = 1.55 MB, thus saving 3.2 MB of hard drive space.
This can be a big savings if you are limited by hard drive size and have a lot of scanned documents stored/saved or wishing to save.
