Drawing and Large Format Scanning

Using the latest high speed large format scanners, AMS are able to scan both black & white and colour drawings up to A0+.

These images may then be integrated with other document database management systems in any of our standard formats or produced as stand-alone files (Adobe Acrobat, TIFF or JPEG).

Vectorisation

Vectorisation is the process of converting a digital image to a CAD drawing file (usually a DXF format file, usable by most standard CAD systems including AutoCAD).

The accuracy of this process will depend greatly on the quality of the original document (white prints will produce much better results than diazo or blue copies).

The big advantage of a vectorised image over a digital image is that rather than just being a picture, the drawing can be edited and reprinted from within the CAD system.
