What is AFP2web?

AFP2web® is a digital transformation solution that you can use in combination with our cloud solution OXS.eco, or simply as stand-alone software. Your document and print formats can be converted to modern formats such as PDF™, HTML5 and image formats at will and in any direction, with color or even black and white. On-the-fly conversions (ad hoc, spontaneous conversions) from small document sets to single documents are supported as well as for millions of print documents (AFP™, PDF™, etc.).

Regardless of whether you only want to archive or send the documents, subsequent processes such as electronic dispatch or postal dispatch can be mapped by our solution. AFP2web® analyzes, separates, classifies, indexes, modifies, and converts your documents and information of any format, type, and content for all electronic and physical output channels, such as AFP™ spool for printing, HTML5 for mobile device display, PDF™ for emailing, or PDF/A™ for archiving. Extraction of indexes and other search criteria as well as extraction of business data for your applications are further possibilities of using our product.

AFP2web® converts to PDF/UA, so your PDF-Files are compliant to the european standard EN 301 549. The conversion reflects the attributes of Universal Accessibility (UA) in your source files.

In the past

In the last 20 years, we have not met a format that we could not process with our transformation solution AFP2web®. You can define/describe the format rules and the data extraction rules as you wish using an integrated language -the Scripting Facility. AFP2web® is easy for developers to integrate into any infrastructure. It does not matter whether the software is installed on your computer or in our data center.

The integrated language

The Scripting Facility is the interface that allows you to customize the behavior of the AFP2web® transformation solution. AFP2web® disassembles the input document and allows to access all document objects via the integrated language. Therefore, you can use the built-in language to rebuild the document page and make changes, such as in the layout. You formulate the processing rules for your documents using script modules. To use the Scripting Facility, you only need to start AFP2web® with the Scripting Facility and provide the processing rules.

Typical application scenarios for AFP2web® are:

Conversion:
