Harnessing e-Form Print Control


Many businesses and organizations use electronic forms (e-forms) solutions to re-purpose text output into richly formatted documents.

E-Forms are a critical part of infrastructure because they streamline and organize a number of business processes.

Some examples of e-forms include: invoices checks pick tickets pack lists bar-coded documents and more

The Benefits of e-FormsThe Benefits of e-Forms


The Stumbling Block of e-FormsThe Stumbling Block of e-Forms

E-Forms must be printed out for record keeping and other business purposes. However, using a native spooling system can turn this into a problematic process.

Once e-form software products create a document, they use the native print spooling system to deliver the documents to the printers.

When this delivery occurs, these software products lose control of the document and the print process.

This lack of control may let errors get out-of-hand – a potential disaster for large-scale printing operations!
