Preparation and sorting
Upon request, we can prepare your documents for you: sorting according to specifications, removing staples, and checking the filing format. We ensure that contracts, invoices, personnel files, and plans are correctly filed. This meticulous preparation makes scanning more efficient and prevents errors.
The documents are digitized in high quality. We use modern scanners and professional software that can quickly process even large quantities of paper documents. Different formats, colors, or rolls pose no problem. This results in digital files that are available at any time.

Frequently asked questions about scanning and digitization
1
What is the difference between a simple scan and digitization with OCR?
A simple scan produces an image of the page – the text cannot be searched or edited. With OCR (Optical Character Recognition), content becomes machine-readable: contracts, invoices, or files can then be directly searched, imported into systems, and further processed.
2
How many documents can DuMo digitize per order?
DuMo processes both individual files and complete company archives with millions of pages. There is no limit. All projects are handled in a structured process with clear quality control and scaled as needed.
3
Can DuMo pick up documents directly, or do I have to bring them myself?
Both options are possible. DuMo can arrange for collection directly from your location using its own logistics. Alternatively, you can send documents by mail or hand them over in person. The transport route will be planned together to ensure your documents arrive safely.
4
In what formats will I receive my digitized documents back?
DuMo delivers searchable PDF files by default. Upon request, we can also provide the documents in other formats such as TIFF, PDF/A, or other common output formats. Delivery is flexible and can be done via download, cloud storage, or USB drive.
5
How is the security of my confidential documents guaranteed during digitization?
DuMo processes all documents according to ISO 27001:2022 with clearly defined processes, unambiguous responsibilities, and complete traceability. Confidential files such as personnel documents or contracts are handled securely from receipt to handover.
