In 2005 Photodata acquired the manufacturing business of JD Photo-Tools, one of the leading suppliers of photomask services to the MEMS and BioMed industries, and renamed ourselves JD Photodata.

Established since 1988, JD Photo-Tools shared the same service philosophy, customer service, flexibility, with speed of response and dedication to customer requirements.

The acquisition of JD Photo-Tools further strengthened the company's position in the marketplace and expanded the services to include High Resolution Photo Plotting and Photomasks.
