Digital archive – scanning all types of documents

However, our scanning service in Munich does not specialise solely in scanning plans or other large-format documents, etc. We would be happy to set up a digital archive for you, which you can access online and thus from anywhere in the world, if you wish. To do this, our scanning service converts your data into TIFF, JPEG or PDF formats with a resolution of 200–400 dpi and higher. If required, we can of course also offer other resolutions and file formats. There are no limits to what we can scan: from correspondence to oversized plans, our scanning service in Munich handles everything.

Would you like to further edit your scan data or drawings in your CAD programme? No problem: our scanning service will be happy to assist you and convert your drawings or raster data into the required DXF format. You can choose from various service levels, each of which produces a different number of layers – naturally following a technical review by an external partner. Simply send us your sample or pop into one of our Munich branches in person – we’ll be happy to advise you.
