A Print Services Organization Automates Production
This large print and mailing services provider turned to Crawford Technologies for help in automating their production processes. Producing over 1 Billion documents annually, they needed to accept and convert multiple input formats for print output, archiving and electronic presentment. CrawfordTech professional services worked with the customer to evaluate, recommend and implement a solution that resulted in a high performance, “hands-off” workflow, improving processing times by as much as 1000%.
Crawford Technologies also supports other line-mode printing and image-only based transforms, so contact us and we’ll help you understand how we can help.
The technology behind mission-critical transactional documents has evolved significantly over the years. As a result, the number of print stream formats and complexities can be difficult to manage. The wide variety of print stream types – AFP, PCL, PDF, PostScript, DJDE, Metacode, HTML and many others – can result in an inefficient production environment that inhibits your efforts to automate, optimize and improve operations, implement archives and to enable print and mail suppression.
