 PRO Suite
 
This suite of solutions allows small and large organizations, software vendors, service providers, and system integrators to implement the specific products they need to transform print-streams into data formats such as Postscript, AFP, Metacode, XML, HTML, and PDF.

These solutions also expand the power of the PRO transform suite by adding many additional features that can be enabled during a transform.

  PRO PCL PRO Dynamic Document Archive
 
       
  PRO Dynamic Document Archive

The PRO Dynamic Document Archive (PRO DD Archive) allows customers to archive print streams in their original format, such as IBM AFP and Xerox Metacode, and utilize mission-critical documents and data in versatile and robust ways. The software works with virtually any archival or content management system and eliminates the need for redundant storage archives. Sub-second retrieval and presentation times bolster customer service and operational agility, while cost-saving compression reduces storage and administration overhead.
