Papyrus Postprocessing and
PrintPool
Profit from centralized document pooling
for centralized print/mail and digital output
delivery. Collect business documents and
letters over a certain period of time generated
from various input data files in the Papyrus
PrintPool.
The Papyrus PrintPool can be installed on
a NT/2000 or UNIX server and on the mainframe.
Standard databases are DB/2, Oracle and MS
SQL Server. For simple bundling requirements
it is also possible to store the documents
in a file based system. Papyrus automatically
generates a document index file at time of
document formatting. With the Papyrus Designer
the index fields are defined using the data
file on a graphical user interface. No manual
coding is required. Any number of index fields
i.e. customer number invoice number, page
number..., can be selected for later bundling,
assembling and sorting of documents.
The bundling process:
Panels are provided to manage the extraction
of pages in any user defined manner. The
bundling logic is completely flexible and
extendible using customizable programs
and DB control tables. Start the bundling
process timed, triggered or by the user.
The documents can be grouped into one envelope
per customer or for a certain user or user
department. The group sequence can be prioritized
based on total group page numbers, users,
documents and combinations thereof.
At this time additional information is
added to the electronic document:
Barcode, OMR code, page numbering 1 of N,
banner pages are generated, 'COPY' is printed
across the page in case of a reprint.
The electronic documents are now ready
for several different output destinations:
•
print and archive
•
fax and e-mail
•
deliver to the Web
All output channels are addressed by Papyrus
seamlessly and transparently without additional
coding. The index file can already contain
a fax number or an e-mail address.
Managing front end documents and central
batch production in a common PrintPool for
optimized mailings and electronic delivery
results in tremendous cost savings for the
corporation.
Papyrus
Enterprise Printing and Archiving
A seamless
multi-channel output solution
This proven system is designed for transparent
multi-channel output. At time of print, archive
and Web delivery the platform and output
target format can be chosen freely without
any changes to the document application.
Even printer limitations such as resolution,
front/back paper control or cut sheet fanfold/roll
printing can be controlled independently
from the layout. Viewing of the document
in the Web can include the preprinted form
in color while the printing is only in grayscale
due to possible hardware limitations.
Papyrus uses an open architectured concept:
Development of document resources and production
formatting is only required one single
time for seamless printing and electronic
delivery. The Web is just another output
channel!
Freedom of platform and output channel
choice:
All Papyrus generated document resources
are binary compatible between the different
platforms, the library is simply copied to
a new platform.
Centralized supervision and administration:
Papyrus WebControl for output process management,
tracking and monitoring allows authorized
users to have centralized supervision and
administration for their printing by monitoring
all the print processes running on a wide
range of printers. This is an easy to operate
solution which fits neatly into every existing
environment.
