PRO AFP to Image provides a valuable tool that allows high-volume AFP printer customers to utilize their mission-critical applications in Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems without making costly architecture changes. PRO AFP to Image converts Advanced Function Presentation (MODCA-P, AFPDS and AFP Category 5) print streams to images in TIFF or PNG formats.
PRO AFP to Image delivers high-speed performance and stability indispensable in high volume, mission-critical printing environments for conversion from AFP to TIFF and from AFP to PNG. Whether organizations want to archive and retrieve their AFP documents or to make them available to both staff and customers in an interactive mode, PRO Meta to Image is the key enabler: it provides high-fidelity TIFF or PNG images of the business data, indexed and, if need be, enhanced or restructured.
TIFF is the format of choice for archiving business documents as images and it is used in many ECM implementations. Other imaging formats can only handle single page files, which are then very difficult to reassemble into multi page documents. TIFF offers an important advantage: it can hold either single or multiple pages in one file. Using the powerful built-in PRO Splitter, organizations can easily create TIFF files containing complete customer statements, bills, invoices, policies, and other important documents.
PRO AFP to Image creates TIFF and PNG images that are perfect representations of the original print files. All AFP fonts, overlays and other resources are reproduced exactly as they are on AFP printers.
During the conversion, PRO Meta to Image optimizes images for archiving, retrieval and display, using our powerful PRO options, eliminating the need for costly changes to the native print applications.
The optional PRO Indexer can create index files or database commands, mark document breakpoints and generate image names using the contents of the original document, such as account number, customer number, customer name and statement date.
The optional PRO Document Enhancer is a powerful reengineering tool, which can add or suppress text, barcodes and images or rearrange the document pages during the conversion.
PRO AFP to Image is available on Linux, AIX, z/OS and Windows platforms allowing users to install the software where they need it.
