Make The Most Of Our Document Management and Storage Solutions

Bulk Document Scanning

In both the Public and Private sectors Electronic Document Storage has now become the standard format for document archiving. When it comes to converting significant volumes of paper, the easiest, and most cost effective option is often to outsource it to a professional company like Cosmo Graphis Imaging.


The requirement for high volume back file conversion services has become a priority for many organizations with wider availability of information being part of the standard business methods either on internal systems or via the internet.

Bulk Document Scanning is not like most scanning projects, where one or two files need to be captured at a time, and therefore usually calls for a different approach. The key to scanning significant amounts of paper is to ensure that there is a repeatable, high quality process in place to ensure that all of the documents are scanned and indexed accurately so that they can be retrieved when needed. This often takes not only high speed scanning equipment, but also a very specialized process involving teams of people who each specialize in sectors of the document scanning process.

The document scanning process starts with the preparation of the documents which have been boxed and collected by our secure transport fleet. Cosmo Graphis have a team of preparation specialists who pull staples and sort through boxes to ensure that your documents are cared for, sorted, and classified correctly so that you can find your content when you need it.

To ensure that capturing tens of thousands of pages per day is feasible, our operation is engineered for high volume scanning using the latest scanning machines to ensure the best possible image quality.

Documents must then be accurately indexed to ensure that files can be found when searched and our team of dedicated index operators ensure the correct indices are used. At the same time quality control tests are being undertaken to ensure that the quality of the images are as good if not better than the original.

Document Scanning Software

Cosmo Graphis Imaging Ltd have designed in-house their own document management retrieval software with the trade name CG Gold which comes in two versions, either client based CG Gold V10 or Web based using CG Web version 2.


CG Gold is a document management system that provides its users with a quick and easy way to access documents. Any digital computer file can be stored, retrieved and viewed in CG Gold. The built-in security access control system provides control over users access to documents and what they can do with the retrieved image.

The recent edition of AES256 encryption in CG Gold version 10 provides for the secure storage and transportation of sensitive information.

The software can be integrated with Microsoft Office products to enable the user to add any office file to a CG Gold document set.

The software provides full image manipulation features on a retrieved document and, subject to users security permissions, allows documents to be printed, faxed, emailed or saved as a file.

The auto update feature provides a quick and easy method of adding newly scanned batches of images to the system.

When integrated with the transfer of data via the Internet, the auto update feature can provide a seamless method that requires no manual intervention by the client.

Whilst documents are at the Cosmo Graphis Imaging Data Processing Centre, we can provide a scanned or fax copy of any image required, within a few hours.
