TX Text Control ActiveX Server can combine data from various sources (HTML forms, databases, Word files) to build documents that can be saved in a number of formats (PDF, DOC, RTF, HTML, XML). For example, an invoice from an online store can easily be created, combining data from a web user with data from a database. The resulting print-ready file can be sent to the web user who can save or print it.
Generate dynamic content such as quotes or invoices on-the-fly - Using TX Text Control ActiveX Server, a print-ready document can be generated on-the-fly using information from a set of databases and user data from a web browser. The resulting document can be displayed in the browser, saved to disk or sent by e-mail. As documents are generated on-the-fly, it is not physically stored on the server. This reduces redundancy and at the same time, gives users direct access to up-to-date, live information.
