The Fine Art Trade Guild defines ‘giclée’ as a piece of printed artwork or photograph produced by using a high quality digital inkjet printer, with specially formulated inks compatible with the extreme fineness of the printer head spurting minute droplets of ink at 1440dpi and above.
 
High resolution printing at 1440 dpi and above (2880 max) gives the Giclée print a near continuous tone, very different from lithography and other printing methods. 

Pigmented inks also ensure a long fade resistant life, and archival quality acid free papers complete the picture.

Canvas prints are normally matt finish and coated with a matt Giclée varnish for added protection.  All materials and inks used are of the highest standards, meeting or exceeding the criteria for ‘Giclée’ printing specified by bodies such as the Fine Art Trade Guild. 

Scanning is by a hi-end Dainippon Cézanne Elite with a 4.2 D max.  This is brilliant for slides and negatives giving good separation in shadow detail.  Prints and original artworks can get the digital treatment too; up to 13” x 20” x 1” (original size).

Microfische can be digitised too, to  pdf format (eg: architect plans).
