Supervisor of Elections converts voter registration card records from 247 microfilm rolls to Digital ReeL; users retrieve information from the Digital ReeL software interface
Sunnyvale, California (PRWEB) November 30, 2009 -- BMI Imaging Systems, a leading
provider of document scanning, microfilm conversion and document management
solutions, today announced that the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections has
selected BMI Imaging's Digital ReeL as its microfilm conversion solution. Digital ReeL is
a microfilm, microfiche and aperture card conversion solution that includes an easy-touse
software application that replicates the look of a reader printer.
Palm Beach County recently shipped its 247 microfilm rolls to BMI’s Sunnyvale,
California microfilm conversion facility. A hard drive storing the converted images and
the Digital ReeL software application were shipped to Palm Beach County following the
three-week microfilm conversion process.
During the Digital ReeL microfilm conversion process, each Palm Beach County
microfilm roll was digitally converted, maintaining the archival context of the original
microfilm roll. With the help of BMI Technical Support, Palm Beach was able to install
Digital ReeL on their workstation for search and retrieval of the digital microfilm rolls.
Digital ReeL includes a unique adjustable grayscale feature that enables users to
optimize the quality of each record by adjusting the brightness and quality of the image.
Users can then print, email and save the optimized records.
