April 29, 2008 RenderX’s Solution Creates a Complete, Generic Framework with Modifiable Form Field Elements, Based on XML Templates
|
|
Banks, utility companies, retailers, insurance, and credit card companies have an increasing need to give their clients the
ability to enter specific information about their accounts in pre-configured PDF forms via the web. This can be accomplished
by offering internet-based application forms that are 100% custom to the applicant. The forms can be generated using information
from a few upfront questions and known information from their account. Other fields can be filled with known information and
even hidden to prevent their modification.
RenderX clients have an increasing need for creating dynamic PDF forms. Producing these forms can be accomplished by using
RenderX’s XEP, an original XSL FO formatting engine, combined with iText to produce dynamic, fill-able, custom forms in a
high-volume, multi-threaded application. Integrating RenderX XEP and XSL FO technology with iText has resulted in a 100% generic
way to generate dynamic PDF forms for everyday applications. No further programming is necessary to generate dynamic, fill-able,
custom PDF forms. Click here to view "Integrating RenderX XSL FO Technology with iText for High Performance Dynamic Forms Generation".

habits into transaction documents to provide promotion information relevant to their specific needs and interests.
If you’re producing transactional customer communications such as statements, invoices, policy notifications, or shipping
documents, you probably already have some of the basic elements you need to start using TransPromo to take your marketing
campaigns to the next level. TransPromo advertising in a PDF, PostScript and AFP electronic and print format can easily be
