Microfilm scanning services in Raleigh, NC
Need microfilm scanning services in Raleigh, NC? Smooth Solutions, part of the DMI family of imaging companies in business since 1977, converts microfilm and microfiche into searchable digital files for organizations across the country.

See your own film digitized before you commit: send a reel or a few fiche for a free sample scan, or ask for a free consultation.
Film problems fixed before scanning
Old film is rarely perfect. Our film lab repairs common problems such as scratches, breaks, curl, dirt and brittle or poorly processed film before it goes on the scanner, so you get readable images instead of rejects. Most scanning vendors cannot do this because they do not run a film lab.
High volume, strict quality
DMI scans more than 100 million images a year from microfilm for the National Archives, under that agency’s demanding quality requirements. The same production line handles projects of every size, from a few reels to an entire archive.
Formats we convert
- 16mm and 35mm roll film
- Microfiche and microfilm jackets
- Aperture cards

Ship your film from anywhere
Film is compact and ships inexpensively by UPS or FedEx. We log every reel and fiche on arrival, track it under a documented chain of custody, and return, store or securely destroy it with a certificate only after your written approval.
Indexing and delivery
You receive searchable PDF or TIFF files, indexed to the fields your staff search by, such as name, date, case, permit, account or record number. Don’t have a document management system? Our WebDocs cloud document management system is simple, secure and affordable, and always includes unlimited concurrent users.

Smooth Solutions is SOC 2 compliant and HIPAA-compliant. Access to your film and images is limited to authorized staff, and every transfer is documented. Prefer to scan in-house instead? NMS Imaging, our hardware division, sells microfilm scanners.
