Ah okay, so they probably operated something like a LVT recorder. Those are kind of rare, but over the past few years I've seen a few people post about them here on Photrio, so there's likely a handful of people who might still be capable of doing this.
The following are search results and they are not necessarily a good match with what you're looking for:
https://analogue-arts.com/dtf/ (no price listed for B&W 35mm)
https://www.griffineditions.com/lvt-digital-negatives/ (only 4x5 + 8x10" film)
https://www.panopticonimaging.com/#/digital-services-2022-update/ (they seem to fit the bill; scroll down on that page)
I know there used to be someone active in Germany as well, but I can't find the website right now and I've always had my doubts whether the offer was still actual as the website looked outdated - but that doesn't say much in itself of course.
Sorry of this is of little help. Either way, you might try including terms like "LVT" or "film recording" in your Google-fu.
I looked into this a while ago and found a place in LA that could do it, called BowHaus. They’re expensive and seem to be a specialist fine-prints place mostly; I didn’t end up following through with the LVT route, but they seemed very competent and engaged when I communicated with them.

Edit: Their services page says they will do “35mm sized”: https://www.bowhaus.com/services/
I don’t know if that means on a 35mm roll or tiny individual sheets or what.
Bow Haus looks perfect, because I was looking to get 35mm negatives made. Thanks for the tip
I am also not sure why anyone would want a 35mm negative from a digital file. You can easily gang up 6 24x36mm images on a single 4x5" negative.I'm not sure why everyone is suggesting LVT if the OP wants 35mm. While it it is possible it's quite painful to setup with anything other than sheet film, which will probably cost you more in the end.
Hmm I hadn't thought of that, I guess you're right. I want 35mm negatives because I print them in the darkroom alongside my normal 35mm work.I am also not sure why anyone would want a 35mm negative from a digital file. You can easily gang up 6 24x36mm images on a single 4x5" negative.

Cut the 4x5 back into the 35mm-sized negatives so they fit a 35mm enlarger. Or just leave it intact and mask the part you don't need.Hmm I hadn't thought of that, I guess you're right. I want 35mm negatives because I print them in the darkroom alongside my normal 35mm work.
For my part, mostly because that's the most well-known (at least to me) tech to go from digital to film, but I'll happily cede to your recommendation.I'm not sure why everyone is suggesting LVT if the OP wants 35mm.

I’ve used DigitalSlides based in the UK in the past and have been very happy with them and the product!
There used to be a company (based in NM I think) called Gammatech that would make negatives out of digital images. I used their services a couple of times and was super happy with the results but sadly they went out of business last year. Does anyone know if there are any other companies that provide a similar service?
Thanks!
