Abstract

An apparatus and a method for producing a digital image, which includes a device for generating a digital signal file from a print film image (125) and a processor for processing the digital signal file and for generating an image file (120). The processor generates a first signal file from the digital signal file (120). The processor processes the first signal file and generates the image file (120).
