Crawford Technologies Announces .NET Support for its PRO Dynamic Document API
Monday 30. June 2008 - Crawford Technologies Inc., the award-winning provider of Transpromo and transactional document solutions, today announced the release of .NET support for its PRO Dynamic Document API to complement the existing Java and C/C++ API support.
The PRO Dynamic Document API (DD API) reduces customers overall development costs and time by shortening the design, development and implementation of solutions. The PRO Dynamic Document API also delivers the capability for dynamic, interactive, personalized processing of very high volume business data. With PRO DD API now available for .NET, developers no longer need to write code around the Java and C/C++ APIs to gain access to the power and flexibility of the PRO Dynamic Document API.
The PRO DD API is a cross-platform, easy-to-use interface that allows programmers to create single and multithreaded applications to extract data from print files, transform print files from one format to another or create electronic display formats such as PDF and HTML from documents in print file formats.
“CrawfordTech has always been known for our platform-independent product families providing our customers with the flexibility to use our software anywhere within their entire enterprise IT infrastructure”, says Ernie Crawford, President of Crawford Technologies. “With the addition of .NET support we cover all widely used development languages.”
Using the PRO DD API, developers can easily and quickly integrate their print files within their computer applications. Developers no longer have to become the experts on all of the different print format types such as Xerox Metacode, AFP, PCL and TIFF in order to harness the power of the information and formatting locked up inside print files.
“This new interface for the PRO DD API provides CrawfordTechs customers with additional options for integrating our software into their environments” said Stephen D. Poe, VP of Product Management for Crawford Technologies Inc. “The family of PRO DD API platforms allows organizations to easily integrate the PRO family of solutions into many enterprise applications. The new .NET offering demonstrates our ongoing commitment to expand usefulness of the PRO technology to our customers.”
