• With DocPath technology, InfoPrint Designer users have a new document software to design, generate, distribute and store their documents.
• In addition to ensuring overall conservation of existing InfoPrint Designer resources, DocPath provides advanced features to design forms and the final documents.
Atlanta, June 26, 2012 — DocPath is one of the cutting-edge enterprises when it comes to offering users of IBM® ´s InfoPrint® Designer the option of easily migrating to DocPath document management software and optimizing their existing document projects. This migration process ensures continuity of existing processes and provides users with the possibility to operate on Windows 7.
InfoPrint Designer was created years ago for users of the AS400 platform, now called System i, that needed to design high-quality forms. Many companies were interested and bought this software. However, the purchase turned into a considerable economic and infrastructural investment, due to the large amount of time needed for developing documents. Currently, many companies around the globe are still using InfoPrint Designer.
About a decade ago, InfoPrint Designer users stopped receiving software updates and maintenance, which meant a major drawback for these companies with respect to the rapid pace of the technology market. Untill now, there was no alternative available that would help InfoPrint Designer users to leverage the initial investment made in this environment.
When DocPath detected this technological gap, the company decided to offer these users the ability to continue optimizing their initial investment whilst adding new advanced features to their projects and final documents. In addition to designing forms, the option on which InfoPrint Designer was based, DocPath also allows users to generate, digitalize, distribute, print, store or retrieve their documents. Moreover, thanks to the new technological core of all DocPath solutions, these processes are even more efficient and simple.
Quick and secure conversion
With its Boulder Suite solution, DocPath provides a user-friendly migration wizard to directly convert forms designed with InfoPrint Designer and migrate to the DocPath design tool on Windows. From here, the resources are sent to the System i platform, where DocPath‘s document generation environment is located.
In this migration process, DocPath software maintains all the InfoPrint Designer resource data, which was the main concern of most users. Once the data has been converted to DocPath technology, users can continue to operate with them or modify them by adding a variety of new features. DocPath also offers the option of optimizing a company’s computing resources, since migrated forms that are updated using DocPath technology can be printed in high resolution.
DocPath also provides new features in both form design and document generation as well as in other processes that cover the document life cycle. Some of the advanced options in form design are: new 2D bar codes, improved and expanded color support and high resolution, dynamic charts, among other features.
In addition, DocPath guarantees technological maintenance, now and in the future, for all companies that decide to migrate their InfoPrint Designer projects, and ensures a continued software support service.
