or even a way to fake it...?

thanks

It's quite an invovlved process best explained here

the idea behind microfilms came about during the cold war as a spy information gathering tool. Nowadays you'll usually see it in libraries as an archive of old newspapers. A roll of microfilm takes up a fraction of the space that a newspaper dooes and it doesn't deteriorate as quickly.

Essentially it it a very high definition photograph usually use to copy printed matter so that large numbers of documents can be stored on a small area of film.Viewing is via a special magnifying system.Not something you can easily do.You might fake it by zooming out on a digital image,but doubtful how legible the results would be
