For some customers, all we do is make copies of old photos to be sent off to other family members.
For other customers we go as far as setting and printing family history books complete with full colour photos and copies of historical documents.
The following outlines some of the things we do that may help your family history project.
We copy photos, full colour or black and white, while you wait. The process we use is fast, safe and effective
- you can even watch while we do it, so your precious photos never actually leave your sight. Customers are
constantly amazed that the quality of the copies is as good as the originals.
A fast and effective way to make up copies of historical photos to send off to the rellies.
We copy, reduce, or even enlarge, maps.
These come in all shapes and sizes. Circular or rectangular, even up to several metres long, we have the best equipment in Dubbo for copying or reducing your records.
With a number of digital copiers, colour copiers and plan printing machines to choose from, we can offer a safe and effective way to copy your valuable family records and maps.
This can be as simple or as complex as you want to make it.
It could be several pages of notes where all we do is run off several copies with a staple in the top left corner. Or it could be several hundred pages resulting from painstaking research that you want printed, in full colour of course,
and bound as hard covered books with a print run in the thousands. (It does happen - some family "reunions" are organised on a global scale).
A more typical example will run from 80 to 100 A4 pages including scanned maps and photos. In some cases the original will have been prepared by the customer as a MS-Word file. In other cases we may need to type the text
from hand-written notes, or, more usually, we will refine files that have been typed, but not fully laid out, by the customer.
