The ITP Document Platform
One solution to create structured, on-demand and interactive documents
Introduction
The ITP Document Platform is specifically designed to provide sophisticated document production services. It offers one solution to create structured, on-demand and interactive documents and electronic forms. ITP enables fully automated high volume document production whilst the interactive interview process facility enables electronic forms as well as document creation through a combination of user input and automatically populated fields. All ITP document production is template based and the templates can contain sophisticated logic enabling conditional data retrieval, conditional user input, conditional formatting and derived data fields. The templates are supported by ITP´s powerful data handling facilities that can retrieve data from multiple and various sources, including but not limited to XML data, Web Services and ODBC enabled data sources.
Template management and document content management
Template design is done in the customer's word processor of choice, including but not limited to Microsoft Word and OpenOffice.org. Consequently, high quality documents can be produced containing text, graphics and any object that is supported by the word processor. In addition, ‘post-production’ processing is available to transform the ‘result documents’ into a wide variety of other formats e.g. print, PDF, TIFF, LXF, fax, email etc.
Application integration
The ITP products are designed to seamlessly integrate with existing applications and can easily be invoked directly from an existing business application using the active data set and the appropriate template. Finally, the integral APIs (Application Program Interfaces) also allow ITP to integrate with third party applications thus enabling, for example, the client's preferred document storage regime to be supported. ITP has been integrated with numerous customer specific applications, vertical applications and bespoke solutions. It has also been integrated with business applications such as SAP and PeopleSoft.
Pricing and licensing
Because of the pricing models employed, the solutions have an attractive entry level cost with the ability to seamlessly upgrade capacity to match demand, making ITP equally applicable to SME and Multinational organizations.
