DocsCorp has announced the availability of new integration between its flagship pdfDocs Desktop product and Open Text Content Server (former Livelink).

David Woolstencroft, DocsCorp President of Sales, Marketing and Strategy, said “We see PDF management as an integral component of enterprise content management. With pdfDocs Desktop, we are able to offer Open Text customers a solution that integrates seamlessly with Open Text Content Server and eDOCS, which will provide better access to information, enhance business processes and systems, increase productivity and secure documents distributed outside the company firewall.”

Out-of-the-box integration with Open Text Content Server will enable users to distribute business-critical documents outside of the ECM environment more efficiently, more securely. For example, users will be able to combine multiple document types into a single, unified PDF document with headers/footers, stationery and watermarks, which can be saved as a new document, new version, new rendition or new generation. Users can also email as PDF directly from Content Server.

Documents and document content can be secured through encryption, metadata cleansing and redaction. Users can restrict printing, copying, or altering; cleanse documents of metadata to prevent data leakage of sensitive information: digitally sign PDFs to validate document authenticity and integrity; redact documents to permanently remove private or confidential information.

Open Text Content Server users will comply with ISO standards for creating PDF documents, including PDF/A for archiving. PDF/A is a standard format that ensures that documents will be accessible in the future. pdfDocs Desktop enables users to create PDF/A compliant documents directly from OpenText Content Server.

More than 3,500 organisations worldwide rely on DocsCorp every day to manage the flow of documents within the business and the exchange of business-critical documents beyond the company’s walls in the Portable Document Format (PDF), a format that is safe, secure and universal.
