Adding watermarks to a document with PDF Automation Server.

PDF Automation Server automates the receiving, processing and routing of PDF documents.

PDF Automation Server (PAS) can be used as a tool to streamline your document workflows and circulation in your organization. PDF Automation Server (PAS) can receive PDF documents from multiple sources concurrently, including email, ftp servers and local or network folders. Processes can then be defined independently for each document source to perform a number of functions on the documents, including conversion, assembly, encryption, printing, preflighting and more. After processing the documents, PAS can route the original and modified documents to multiple destinations, including folders, printers, email and ftp servers.

Features

PDF Processing
PDF Automation Server provides a number of functions to manipulate PDF documents.
Reliability
PDF Automation Server has been produced and tested with the utmost care so that uptime is maximized and your documents are always processed reliably. Intelligent error handling and recovery is done at multiple levels in the software so that the server can recover from transient error conditions. Additionally, different processes are independent, so errors in one process will not affect other processes.
Multiple Sources
PDF Automation Server can receive documents from multiple sources concurrently. Documents from different sources can be handled in the same manner or unique processes can be defined for individual sources.
Multiple Destinations
After processing documents, PDF Automation Server can deliver the documents to multiple destinations. Each process in the server can send the resulting document to multiple destinations and different processes can send output to unique destinations.
Event Logging
PDF Automation Server keeps a complete log of events in the server, including informational, warning and error events. With the event log, users can track document processing and pinpoint causes of problems.
Notification
PDF Automation Server can send notification emails based on a number of criteria, including error conditions as well as successful processing of documents.
Platform independence
PAS is platform independent and can run on Windows, Linux, Mac OSX and several Unix flavors.
PDF Automation Server Functions
Printing
PAS can automatically print incoming PDF documents to single or multiple printers before or after processing the document.
Security
PDF Automation Server has been produced and tested with the utmost care so that uptime is maximized and your documents are always processed reliably. Intelligent error handling and recovery is done at multiple levels in the software so that the server can recover from transient error conditions. Additionally, different processes are independent, so errors in one process will not affect other processes.
Conversion to Images
PAS can convert PDF documents into images in a number of formats, including TIFF, JPEG and PNG.
Form Fields Data Merging /Flattening
PAS can import data in a variety of formats into interactive PDF forms. It is possible to flatten fields into the PDF documents content as an option.
