ISIS Papyrus Releases AFP Viewer
Freeware to Promote AFP Standard
for Advanced Printing, Presentation and Archiving
(VIENNA and DALLAS) Oct. 23, 2009 – In
cooperation with the global printing and imaging industry’s
AFP Consortium (AFPC), enterprise software innovator ISIS
Papyrus announces it has released its AFP Viewer
V7.00 for Windows as freeware for the benefit of the
entire IT community.
“As an early adopter of the AFP standard, ISIS
Papyrus is excited to demonstrate the importance of
easy access to business and customer documents with
a professional-quality viewer,” said Roberto
Anzola, R&D Manager for ISIS Papyrus Software and
AFPC Board Director. “Our global enterprise experience
and success in high-volume and high-quality document
management environments gives us deep expertise in
enhancing AFP performance.”
The ISIS Papyrus AFP Viewer plug-in enables Web browser-based
viewing of any documents created or stored in the widely-used
AFP format. AFP, or Advanced Function Presentation,
is a presentation architecture that offers independence
from specific applications and devices for document
and information presentation. Particularly important
in driving new industry initiatives like TransPromo,
e-discovery and the electronic delivery of mission-critical
documents such as bills, statements, and policies,
AFP has powerful advantages over other print architectures
as it supports very high print speeds, output integrity
and centralized, automated server-based management.
Papyrus AFP Viewer Benefits
With advanced functionality and processing speed, the
Papyrus AFP Viewer provides superior accuracy of
presentation with the embedded AFP resources, making
it ideal for business and production environments
that demand superior user interface and presentation
of colors, as well as reliable and efficient archiving.
Papyrus AFP Viewer Features & Capabilities
- View AFP files from any system (z/OS, Unix, Windows)
- 100% WYSISWYG on any output channel
- View any AFP document from online archive or file
system in the browser
- Fast navigation, search and zooming the AFP File

As an initial Board member, ISIS Papyrus played a
strong role in the formation and leadership of the
AFP Consortium and is committed to promoting recognition
and support of the AFP standard for printing and presentation.
“The AFP Consortium has been a ground-breaking
group that exemplifies open collaboration among industry
partners and competitors for the benefit of our collective
customers,” said Harry Lewis, President and Secretary
of AFP Consortium and AFP Architect and Manager of
Intellectual Property & Open Standards at InfoPrint
Solutions. “We appreciate the commitment to collaboration
and the AFP standard that ISIS Papyrus demonstrates
with this open and forward-looking contribution, and
we commend the ISIS team’s leadership in sharing
their technology.”
