A Simple Step from 'Printer-Ready' to 'Screen-Ready'

Pcl2Pdf software makes the transition from ‘printer-ready’ output to ‘screen-ready’ output simple for large, medium and small enterprise environments.

Many users know how to save an individual document into PDF for sending via email. However, many applications in use at large corporations and government facilities have business-critical print processes that are geared towards printed output only. The idea of converting these documents manually to PDF is not efficient; Pcl2Pdf is a product that can ‘intercept’ print-destined output, convert it to PDF, and with AXIAR Green’s output management capabilities, can automatically send the PDFs to computer/SmartPhone destinations.

The latest version of Pcl2Pdf includes many enhancements to better handle standard application output and more efficiently convert data from ‘printer-ready’ to ‘screen-ready’ presentation. Recipients of the PDFs can still print if they wish, of course.
