Press Release Body: Toronto, Ontario, June 02, 2008 -- Microfilm may be ancient history in today\'s world, but many people need a solution for preserving existing microfilm content. Ristech, a company specializing in providing tools for microfilm and microfiche scanning, announced this week that they are releasing several new tools that make it easy to scan and preserve such content.
Thanks to Ristech's innovations, The Library and Archives Canada was able to convert images at a rate of 0.5 seconds per image, with virtually no effort. Their microfiche scanner makes it easy to convert entire stacks of film at one time and little intervention is needed on the part of the operator.
