What We Scan and How We Work

Scan Hub provides high-end scanning for transparent, reflective and difficult-to-digitise originals, with workflows matched to material type, condition and intended use.
  • Four high-end scanners in one calibrated lab
  • Workflow selected according to format, condition and output needs
  • Careful handling for fragile, mounted and archive materials
  • Consistency from capture to retouching, proofing and print preparation

Different originals require different scanners, handling methods and file-preparation paths. The service overview below is organised to help you find the most suitable starting point for your material.
