WideTEK Colour Scanning
Document scanning can be an invaluable tool for document management, digital archiving and for reducing the paper volume for companies of all sizes. At Dominion Blue we employ the most advanced document imaging techniques and equipment in converting paper documents to stable and secure electronic formats.
With WideTEK wide format colour scanning you can easily have originals up to 48” wide by 3mm thick converted into a digital file. Our WideTEK 48 Colour Scanner with built-in precision colour calibration produces outstanding digital files. In addition, our WideTEK 36 and Océ ColourWave scanners can quickly turn your detailed colour drawings and CAD mark ups into digital files.
Black & White Scanning... We offer scanning for black and white originals or blueprints up to 36" wide using Océ Image Logic Technology. Scan to print or scan for file storage. Save files to TIF, PDF, and other formats. Store files in a View Share Print Port built just for you; to view your document anytime online and print as required. We'll also burn them to CD/DVD/M-DISC or copy them to a USB memory stick or digital media of your choice.
Every Document Counts
When you order printing or have any of your hardcopy documents scanned, choose the archive option and we’ll build your very own cloud based retrieval system for free. It's that simple to have all of your business printing in one secure online place.
The Advantages of Online Digital Printing... Online digital printing encompasses everything be it catalogs, brochures, flyers, business cards, greeting cards, banners, signs, tradeshow displays or point of purchase (POP) marketing materials. All of your printing and documents accessible by all of your computers and devices connected to the internet. Below we've listed a few benefits of online printing over traditional print stores.
1. Options galore: When you opt for online digital printing, you will be astonished at the number of options you have at your fingertips.
2. Affordable: Digital printing services are an affordable option. You can order in volume to get the best pricing or order only what you need right now and save money. Moreover, if you want to dispatch your order to a client's location, you can get it shipped direct with the click of a mouse.
3. Plethora of design options: This is yet another obvious advantage of online digital printing. You get to choose from a variety of design templates, colours, labels and other custom features, which match your requirements. To top it off, dynamic or variable data printing has never been easier to do.
4. Open 24/7: Online printing stores don't hang a "closed" sign on their doors (read websites) after certain hours. They are open around the clock. This means you can work on your design whenever you want, be it early in the morning or late at night.
Construction Document Management : DFS & VSP²
DFS™ Online Planroom
Our DFS (Document Fulfilment System) allows you to manage the way you communicate with other people on the project and also how you store, access, and distribute documents. It contains tools that allow you to manage your documents, bid packages, contacts, notifications, reports and many other things related to your project.
Dominion Blue has been providing expert document reproduction and distribution to the Vancouver AEC community for over 100 years. DFS is an application that provides robust construction document management capabilities throughout the project lifecycle. Specifically, DFS provides the following functionality:
| » Contact Management | » Bid Management |
| » Prequalification of Subcontractors | » Ability to Manage Issues |
| » Submittal Management | » RFI Management |
| » Contract Document Management | » Electronic Closeout & Legacy |
The DFS Windows Remote Application runs on the local computer as a native windows application, but connects to a remote web server for services and data. This provides the rich user interface of a windows application with the easy deployment and maintenance of a web application.
The Windows application provides many advantages. Support for multiple windows, drag-n-drop and persistent internet connections provides productivity and reliability that web applications can’t match. With the DFS Windows application, a user can access DFS from any PC. They simply have to connect to a special page or link we set up on their web site and click on the DFS button. DFS will then install the appropriate software on the PC each time it is executed.
