Rare Books, such as the Shakespeare First Folio, are vulnerable to theft.
Maps are even more of a target.


Front-lit and back-lit images using white light and infra red
are archived by the earlybook imaging system.

To enhance security the PaperPrinttm process creates a ‘digital fingerprint’ of paper based items.
 
Results are available in a Datafile of PaperPrinttm images.
