Microform & Digitization Review
From the journal Volume 36 Issue 3

Modern film writers feature a variety of recording techniques, some based on traditional technology like CRT and Laser based Computer Output Microfilm (COM) and some with newer Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology. There are three key questions that seem to come up frequently from the user community. These can be summarized as follows:

  • 1. Are films used in modern film writers “archival”?

  • 2. How do I measure resolution or image quality in these newer devices and why can't I use my standard ISO 3334 (NBS1010a) resolution target?

  • 3. Are there any standards for these technologies and techniques?
