1.14.2.10 STANDARD FOR MICROFILM: This standard applies to the production of traditional microfilm in which source documents are photographed utilizing a camera and images are captured on film. The measures outlined in this section are required to maintain the integrity of the original records and to ensure that the microfilm produced is an adequate substitute for the original record and serves the purpose for which such records were created.

A. Agencies utilizing a service provider for the filming, processing, duplication or the production of microforms shall have a written agreement in place to provide for compliance with this standard.

B. A microfilm system shall be determined to meet minimum standards if the combined results of the consumables (i.e. film, chemicals, etc.) and microfilm equipment meet the standards developed or approved by the American national standards institute for the production of microfilm (see 1.14.2.17 NMAC). The requirements of the most current revisions of said standard shall prevail unless otherwise specified in this rule.

C. Preparation for microfilming: Materials to be microfilmed require careful analysis and preparation to ensure the creation of quality microfilm that is readily usable and easily understood. Important factors to be considered in determining which record series should be filmed include retention period and volume. Only records in large volume or with long retention periods should normally be considered. Before microfilming, materials must be properly organized and collated.

(1) Records shall be carefully inspected for completeness and the description and retention period of the record verified.

(2) The proper order of the materials shall be determined before microfilming.

(3) Active records shall not be filmed with inactive records.

(4) Documents from different record series may be filmed on a single roll provided retention periods are the same.

D. Microfilm qualifications: Agencies shall produce a master negative microfilm and a working copy. An agency shall have a re-inspection program and process in place for all master microfilm produced.

ISO test chart no. 2 as specified by ANSI/AIIM MS51-1991 (American National Standard for Microcopying--ISO Test Chart No. 2--Description and Use in Photographic Documentary Reproduction), must be filmed at the beginning and ending of each roll. These chart images should be used to monitor resolution as filming progresses. The line patterns must be read in each corner and in the center of each chart (or on a diagonal for rotary cameras) and the lowest resolution reading must be posted to the film container and to the guide sheet or other laboratory record. The cause of a substandard resolution must be identified and corrected prior to further production filming. All substandard film shall be corrected before shipping to the SRCA for storage.

(a) Rotary cameras. A minimum resolving power of 2.5 shall be read on the required test chart.

(b) Planetary cameras. A minimum resolving power of 4.0 shall be read on the required test chart.

1.14.2.12 STANDARD FOR COMPUTER OUTPUT MICROFILM (COM): These standards apply to the production of master microfilm from records digitally created (born digital) or imaged (scanned) from paper.

A. State agencies shall utilize a COM system capable of recording faithfully onto microfilm all of the information contained in the digital image. Agencies utilizing a service provider for writing digital images to COM shall have a written agreement in place to provide for compliance with this standard.

B. The following standards for production, testing, and inspection of COM shall be met:

(1) ANSI/AIIM MS1;

(2) ANSI/AIIM MS5;

(3) ANSI/AIIM MS28;

(4) ANSI/AIIM MS39;

(5) ANSI/AIIM MS43; and

(6) ANSI/NAPM IT9.17.

C. Record grouping. Before converting images to COM records shall be properly organized and grouped.

(1) Records shall be carefully inspected for completeness and the description and retention period of the record verified.

(2) The proper order of the materials shall be determined before conversion to COM.

(3) Active records shall not be filmed with inactive records.

(4) Documents from different record series may be filmed on a single roll provided retention periods are the same.

D. Film writer quality control. State agencies shall ensure that the film writer has the correct density/contrast level by using a reference white target file with a range of 0.9 to 1.1.

E. Quality monitoring of images. Quality monitoring of images is controlled at the time of document scanning. See 1.14.2.14 NMAC, standard for imaging.

F. Resolution standard: A system used to create microfilm from digital images shall have a self-test process to ensure that all of the available pixels are consistently available for recording purposes. The COM unit shall be tested regularly to ensure optimal functionality.

G. Density:

(1) Density of master negative COM shall measure between 0.80 to 1.20.

(2) Required base plus fog density (relative Dmin) for unexposed processed microfilms shall not exceed 0.10.

(3) Background density on positive appearing silver masters shall be no greater than 0.30.

H. Reduction ratios: The selection of a reduction ration is application specific. An agency shall take into account the characteristics of the record, the task the system is designed to perform, and the user requirements to be satisfied when selecting a reduction ratio.

I. Image resolution: Resolution shall be adequate to duplicate all details of the document in order that the COM qualify as a true copy of the original record. Image resolution shall meet standards specified in Subsection G of 1.14.2.14 NMAC.

J. Image formats. Digital images shall be in a standard image format such as Group IV TIFF, BMP or PDF.

K. Blip coding. To effectively organize a roll of COM the use of a multi-level blip coding strategy may be used. Blips are rectangular marks exposed by the film recorder under each page as they are written on the film. These marks can be programmed to appear in different sizes to identify file level, document level, page level, etc. images. Applying this sequence to recorded documents, a large blip designates the first page of a document while small blips indicate supporting pages within the document.

L. Page orientation. Pages can be recorded on microfilm in two ways. In “cine mode” where the text on a page runs perpendicular to the length of the film and in “comic mode” where the text on a page runs parallel to the length of the film. Unless a lower reduction ratio is needed for acceptable image quality, recording letter and legal sized pages in comic mode is preferable. This is accomplished by rotating the images 90º prior to recording or feeding the page “sideways” through the scanner. The advantage of comic mode recording is that more pages can be written on each roll of film saving storage space and promoting more efficient scanning in the event that the film needs to be used to recover lost image data.

M. Page spacing. Pages need to have sufficient separation to allow a film scanner to reliably differentiate adjacent pages on the film. There should be a minimum separation of 0.06” (1.5mm) between adjacent pages. Pages that touch each other at any point may preclude them from being captured separately by a microfilm scanner. Although maximizing packing density improves scanning efficiency, documents recorded on film should not span rolls.

N. COM targets. All microfilm shall have the following targets to be in compliance with this rule:

(1) Statement of intent and purpose. A statement of intent and purpose shall be filmed at the beginning and end of each roll of film and shall contain the following information:

(a) authority under which microfilming is being done;

(b) name of the agency for which the microfilming is being done;

(c) statement indicating the records microfilmed are in the legal custody of the agency, and that the records were created as part of the normal course of business;
