standard camera and have the photographs processed to a digital format, such as a Photo-CD.
Photo-CD Image Format

When you have a number of photographs to digitize, you can use Photo-CDs, a digital format invented by Kodak.
With this process, your ordinary roll of film is converted to digital images, each with four levels of resolution, from
low to high. The digital images, delivered to you on a CD disk, can be used for slide presentations and Web images as
well as for print, depending on the resolution you choose to work with. You can also select individual images from
several rolls of film and have them done as a custom order. This type of processing costs a little more, but it is still
less expensive than scanning a number of individual images.

You may want to change the Photo-CD Web format that Kodak supplies to a JPEG format for somewhat faster
loading. You can view and select the images you want by using the CD-ROM drive on your computer. Selected
images can be transferred to a floppy disk or Zip disk. (A Zip disk is a cartridge that can hold much larger amounts of
information than the normal floppy disks.) For more information, refer to your local Photo-CD processor, or for
Photo-CD information direct from Kodak, access <www.kodak.com/daiHome/products/photoCDs.html>.
