  • Check resolution is at 400 ppi

  • Scanned at 24 bit depth

  • AdobeRGB1998 color profile1 2 

  • Validate that all pages are turned to their proper orientation

  • Scanned dimensions closely match actual size of the original and consistent size across pages in object

  • Scanned the complete document including blank pages, reverse side of pages, front and back matter, hard covers, spine, etc.

    • the only exception would be newsclippings which are almost always photocopied and blank on the back.

  • Scanned the entire page with edges (a uniform border should be visible around entire page - use black background paper)

  • Ensure that no cropping of page text has occurred 

  • Visually check that no distortion or blemishes obscure the legibility due to photo processing (i.e. that a blemish is not part of the original text and or any glare from protective covering is minimized)

  • Confirm page sequence matches original and filenames have been properly applied (eg wrcXXXXX_XXX)

  • Perform visual comparison of digitized images with original document, checking for any missing or mislabeled pages 

  • (optional for Flat Bed scanning) Open a random page from each object in Photoshop, and visually confirm overall tone and color matches original. Should confirm image is in focus by viewing at a resolution view of 50-100%

 

 

(1) Note on color management - use AdobeRGB1998 color profile ( since using flat bed scanner and monitor calibration may not be feasible. Recommend using a standard icc to maintain consistent color throughout images )

(2) Assign profile if sRGB
