Transforming your physical collections into digital data
LIMB Processing enriches scanned images for libraries, archives, and digitization departments. The software offers tools for cleaning, quality control, metadata addition and conversion into various formats. Whether it’s a digitization workflow or existing files (PDF, TIFF, JPEG), it automates processing and enriches images with structural metadata. It is the link between digitized images and a wide range of end-uses, such as digital libraries, long-term archiving, e-book publishing and more.
