competencies: creating dynamic, sophisticated, customer-focused document
output. We look forward to serving this market."
A COMPREHENSIVE SOLUTION FOR SOPHISTICATED DOCUMENT OUTPUT
JetForm's Output Pak for Oracle Applications includes several products:
* JetForm Design -- The company's flagship e-forms design tool that
enables forms designers to create new forms or modify any of the Oracle
Applications-ready electronic forms included in the Output Pak.
* JetForm Central -- This server software connects Oracle-ready electronic
forms to Oracle applications and generates presentation-quality forms
for printing or faxing.
* JetForm Forms for Oracle -- JetForm has created electronic forms that
work "out of the box" with Oracle. These forms are easily modified to
meet customer-specific needs such as the addition of company logos or
boilerplate formatting.
* JetForm Reports for Oracle -- JetForm has created custom reports that
output data in JetForm's field-nominated format that the JetForm Forms
for Oracle can process quickly and easily.
* Form Builder -- With this tool JetForm Design automatically creates new
forms from an Oracle report providing fast, easy creation and
integration of new forms beyond those in the Output Pak. It also
automatically creates complimentary custom Oracle reports which produce
JetForm data streams from existing reports.
* Sort Agent -- The sort agent allows customers to sort forms prior to
printing, such as for postal optimization.
BENEFITS OF JETFORM OUTPUT PAK FOR ORACLE APPLICATIONS
* WYSIWYG Forms Design -- Easy-to-use forms drawing tool in JetForm Design
means no programming is required to design intelligent documents that
are easy and inexpensive to maintain.
* Numerous Formatting Options -- JetForm provides extensive formatting
capabilities such as bar codes, rotated text, watermarks, and multi-part
forms which means Oracle customers can enjoy documents that are
comparable in quality to pre-printed forms, but eliminate all of the
associated problems with warehousing, obsolescence, and inflexibility.
* Forms Flexibility -- Create dynamic, market-focused, personalized
documents that support business requirements.
* Faster Forms Processing -- The Oracle Application only needs to output
the data -- with no formatting -- resulting in faster processing time
and reduced network traffic.
* Easy to Implement -- The Output Pak comes with easy-to-use installation
and configuration tools that allow users to get up and running with
electronic forms in a matter of hours.
* Easy to Maintain -- Data-only Oracle output means customers can use a
single data stream to generate multiple documents. That means companies
can support multiple languages, companies, subsidiaries, or forms.
