Sizing a Document Management System: Image Size Estimates for All Types of Digitized Documents

Overview This pamphlet provides managers with document size estimates for use in discussing, planning, designing, and implementing a document management system. The average computer file sizes for many types of scanned (digitized) documents are listed and explained.
All of the estimates are chosen to be representative of the scanned document images and to produce easily useable, round figures, when multiplied. For example, 50 thousand bytes (50 Kilobytes) is close to the average size of scanned pages and also yields an estimate of exactly one million bytes (a MegaByte) for 20 pages, exactly one billion bytes (a GigaByte) for 20 thousand pages, and exactly one trillion bytes (a TeraByte) for 20 million pages.

What's the fuss about... content management?
