The exact cost of scanning microfiche varies depending on a number of factors including:
- Number of sheets scanned
- Type of fiche
- Final resolution
- Indexing requirements
- Whether or not you require OCR
- Schedule – How fast do you need to scan?
The average cost to scan a single microfiche sheet ranges from $0.75 to $1.25 per sheet for jacket fiche (16mm and 35mm) and $3 to $5 for COM fiche. If you have a roll of microfilm, the cost is typically around $85, depending on the number of images on the roll.
