6.RESUME
Jobstmedia is not the only digital printing house working in this
area of cultural heritage. Several institutions and companies try
to save culture with the help of digital distribution [examples:
www.octavo.com or www.ceec.uni-koeln.de].
Nevertheless an archiving system in the background - analogue
or digital - is needed to save the reproductions. One of the best
ways to keep digital data alive are server systems. A backup of
the data is carried out regularly and thus the update to new
media is ensured.
Thinking of all digital media that are in circulation - CD-Rom,
DVD, MO, tapes, etc - a device for reading them is inevitable.
In addition to the short term durability of the media, the loss of
devices seems to be the main problem in saving a digital
cultural heritage.
The only way to avoid problems with the digital storage of
reproductions is to keep the original in the best environment
available.
Since the standards of technology and the storage systems are
rapidly changing and developing, only the stable analogue
technique or an ongoing copying process on a server based
system ensure the surviving of the data during time.
