To get the fastest turnaround times from our automated listing pipeline, your image inputs need to be clean and legible. High-volume postcard scanning can become a bottleneck if your hardware configurations are incorrect. For the best results, we recommend setting your flatbed or high-speed feed scanner to 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch) in Colour Mode, and saving files directly as JPEG (.jpg) format. Scanning below 300 DPI causes pixelation that stops our text-recognition software from reading vintage publishers or handwriting, while scanning above 400 DPI creates massive file sizes that slow down your upload speeds. Additionally, please ensure your scanner software is set to save images sequentially (e.g., Batch1_001a, Batch1_001b) so our systems instantly pair the front and back scans of each postcard correctly.
