AFP Normalization
AFP Normalization interprets AFP print streams and resources, and converts and splits them into standard normalized AFP files to be printed or converted to other formats.
AFP to HTML5
AFP to HTML5 dynamically converts Advanced Function Presentation print streams into HTML5. Documents such as customer statements, bills, invoices, policies and confirmations can be displayed in and printed from all standard browsers, giving customer service agents and customers instant online access to critical and timely information.
AFP to PostScript
