1. Organize

• Remove slides from carousels / binders (optional)

• Continue by writing a “2” in the second stack – letting us know this is the first slide of the 2nd stack and so on.
• We will scan the slides in this order top to bottom.
• If you would like to have separate folders created based on different batches of slides, please put them in different ziplocs or boxes with the batch label information printed out. We will create a unique folder per batch in the order you specify.
• *Note: a setup fee may apply if the slides are different thicknesses within the same batch / stack.

• if you are providing your own hard drive or flash drive, include it with your order.
