Computer Imaging Services
Computer Slides
BCU can make 35mm slides directly from the following native programs:
| Windows
95,2000,NT,XP |
Macintosh OS10 |
| Power Point XP and Below |
PowerPoint 2000 & below |
| PhotoShop CS |
MS Office 98 |
| Slide Write 6.0 |
PhotoShop 6.0 |
| PageMaker 7.0 |
all .PICT files |
| MS Excel & Word XP |
all .EPS files |
| .TIF, .PICT, .JPG, .BMP, or .EPS files |
|
If you are using the latest version of a program that we do not yet have an
upgrade for, simply save it as an older version that is compatible with the
above list. We should be able to image anything from previous versions of the
above packages.
CAMERA READY FILES: If you have a program that
we do not have, we can still image your files if you save each individual slide
as a:
.TIF, .PICT, .GIF, .JPG, .BMP, or .EPS file format.
Most programs include these options under the File/Save As or
File /Import To menu.
REMEMBER: to make sure your files are setup for 35mm slides and
not defaulted to screen show. This will effect the proportions, and potentially
cause things to move around on the final slides. When you first start any
presentation, go into File/Page Setup and adjust it to 35mm slide before you do
anything else to it. If you change this after you have created your presentation
you will find that text and images will have moved around on you. Make sure you
go into every slide and double check them before you send them to us. We cannot
be held responsible for pre-existing errors in the files we are given. Its also
a good idea to remember to do a spell check on those files before you send them
to us as well.
Transferring Files: If your files are too
large for a floppy disk, or if you are too busy to walk them down to our office,
feel free to send them too us via our FTP site. (remember to call us at
335-2624 and place your order after you've transferred your files.) Please,
remember to only send us the exact slides you want imaged. Do not send us an
entire file if you only need one or two slides from it.
You can also save large files onto MAC or PC formatted Zip
disks, or burn them onto a CD-ROM.
Turn-Arounds & Prices
Computer slides take 2
days to image. We then take the film to Archer Photo in Moscow, ID for
processing. They process slide film on M,W,F 9:00 am. All
computer slides cost $2.00 each plus the cost of processing the film at Archer
Photography. Orders coming to less than the cost for film processing
will be assessed a processing fee. For a list of our policies
check here.
Graphic Design/Layout
If you're too busy to create your own slides, or if you have a large
poster presentation, brochure or other Graphic Design work you need to have
done, BCU can do the work for you.
We can create slide presentations in Power Point using animated transitions,
graphs, images, and more. We can custom design large posters for printout,
create graduation programs, label gels, and much much more. We can even create
computer animations and digitize video!
All labor is billed out at $30.00 an hour (except for digital video editing
which is $45.00/hour), and turn-arounds times depend on the complexity of the
project, and the available time we have to do it.
If any of your orders are not camera ready and require our labor to put the
finishing touches on them, a labor fee may be charged in addition to the regular
cost.
Color Printing
BCU can make a variety of photorealistic color prints from any of your
computer files. We have an assortment of sizes, resolutions, and paper stock for
you to choose from.
Epson Stylus 2200 Color Inkjet Printer
Our Epson printers are purchased with funds donated by all our staff and
matched by the dean of the CVM. We are capable of printing up to 17" x 24" color
images with up to 1440 dpi. It's 4-color prints are photorealistic quality and
are accepted for publication. We can print on a variety of papers at different
resolutions and sizes.
Camera Ready prints take 2 days. If you place your order by 10am you can pick
your prints up after 4:30pm the next working day. For more comprehensive
description of our policies and turn-arounds look here. Remember, you can send us your large computer
files remotely to our
FTP site or drop them in our
CVM dropbox.

We can also print onto canvas, water color paper, photo film, and photo index

prices.(5-2624)
Scanning
BCU can scan most pictures, images, books, slides, and negatives.
Images can be scanned into any file format, resolution, or size you desire.
If you do not specify a preference our default is a 150dpi .TIFF or .JPEG
file.
We can either save these files to a floppy disk, zip disk, or CD for you
(keep in mind most images are too large to fit on a floppy), save them to the
CVM network, or
put them in our
FTP site
for you to pick up remotely.
All scans cost $2.00 each and take 2 days to process at a regular rate. For a
list of our policies and turn-around times
check here.
Please get copyright permission from photographers and publishers before you
submit other peoples work for us to scan. WSU's copyright policy can be found in
the
WSU
copyright office.
Special Volume Pricing
50+ slides scanned for Powerpoint and saved to a CD: $.25/slide with a two week minimum turnaround.
CD-R & DVD-R Burning
Individual & bulk CD-R & DVD-R copy service is available at BCU. CD-R copies
are $2.75/CD with a color label. Jewel cases are $.15. Shells are $.30 and
Mailers are $.25. DVD's with a color label are $20.00 for the first DVD with
each additional copy of the same DVD for $6.75.
(There will be an additional hourly labor fee if we have to spend a great
deal of time finding and collecting the files. The best way to avoid this is to
upload all of your files into a single directory on our
FTP site. or in our
CVM dropbox, bring in a
pre-existing CD for us to duplicate (we cannot legally duplicated any CD you do
not have copyright permission for, or save your files onto several PC formatted
Zip disks.)
