Trigger can digitize all types of printed photos. We work with a photo scanner that can handle up to A3 format, but we can also scan larger photos in parts, which we neatly reassemble digitally for you.
We generally work in 2 resolutions: 300dpi or 600dpi. If we scan a photo of 10x15cm, this results in approximately 1200x1800pixels at 300dpi and 2400x3600pixels at 600dpi respectively in terms of digital size. This makes it possible to make excellent prints up to slightly smaller than A4 and A3 format respectively. However, in the professional printing world, photos scanned at 300dpi will be printed the same size as the original and will not be enlarged. If you want to have your photos printed without any loss of quality, you will have to have them scanned at 600dpi. You can then have 2 times the size of the original printed. For 4 times the original size you must then have it scanned at 1200dpi. So this applies to the professional standard for lossless printing. In many consumer photo books or printers you will not really see the difference quickly and so you will be able to make good prints from an original 10x15 cm photo scanned at 300dpi to slightly smaller than A4 size. And from a 10x15cm photo scanned at 600dpi you can make a print up to about A3 size. In general, we recommend that you always have photos smaller than 10x15cm digitized in 600dpi. Scanning photos in this way gives you just a few more options for the future. All photos are manually corrected by us for color and lighting, and in some cases we can also do something about the dust and scratches with software. You also have the option to scan photo album pages in their entirety, then the entire page will be corrected and not per photo separately.
We usually supply JPEG files, but TIFF is also an option, for example. It is possible to scan up to 12,000 dpi. This can be useful if one photo is used to cover a wall, for example.
