Imagine a grand, ancient book covered in leather, embossed in gold, and weathered with time. It exudes a sense of wisdom and mystery, suggesting it holds secrets from forgotten eras. Can you smell the rich history? This treasure perfectly embodies the essence of books digitization.
Wrong Question! The question should be, Can You Scan it?
At ABTec Solutions, we specialize in Books Digitization. Additionally, our professional solution includes a book scanner. This scanner features a motorized book cradle and a glass plate. Moreover, it handles demanding digitization projects with ease. Consequently, it accommodates books up to 35 or 50 cm in thickness.
Example of Books that are Over 1000 Pages
Books like “The Stand” by Stephen King and “War and Peace” by Leo Tolstoy, are well-known and thick, each holding over 1000 pages. Moreover, such volumes highlight the challenges and opportunities of books digitization, especially considering their size. Therefore, these examples underscore the importance of books digitization in preserving and accessing extensive literary works.
