DbForm
is an enterprise-wide white-paper printing
solution, which automatically prints high
quality business documents directly from
core business applications onto plain
paper on laser printers. As this eliminates
traditional pre-printed stationery, DbForm
boosts productivity, improves company
image, significantly reduces costs and
provides a very fast return on investment.
Seamlessly integrated
into all major Accounting and ERP systems,
DbForm is a highly effective laserforms
solution, with an easy-to-use graphical
forms designer and unique data-extraction
and manipulation capabilities.
Time Savings
No need to waste time changing and aligning
different stationery; no need to burst
and decollate multi-part sets and, more
significantly, no need to waste time distributing
them. DbForm automatically prints as many
copies as required, and automatically
routes them to the relevant printers -
anywhere in the organisation. When a document
needs to have changes made - editing a
logo, address, telephone number, or even
producing a completely new document -
it's all just a few minutes work with
the friendly graphical forms designer.
DbForm can automatically
print OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) marks
on all documents, so when used in conjunction
with suitable mailing machines, will automatically
insert multi-page statements, invoices,
etc. into the correct envelopes. Automatically
bar-coding despatch notes, works orders,
picking notes, etc. will also save dramatic
amounts of time.
Cost Savings
All the purchase, storage and administration
costs associated with pre-printed stationery
can now be totally eliminated. When documents,
phone numbers or logos change, no wastage
or re-printing costs are incurred. This
is a software-only solution, typically
residing on the application server, so
no additional hardware is required - even
to print barcodes or OMR marks.
Further Time &
Cost Saving
DbForm can produce and receive XML documents.
Even legacy applications can output and
accept XML documents when using DbForm.
Incoming XML documents can be automatically
received by the business application as
an electronic document or printed as a
hard copy. Outgoing XML documents such
as Purchase Orders or Sales Invoices can
be submitted electronically directly into
business partner's applications enabling
electronic trading. The need for administration,
post and data entry is eliminated.
Professional Image
By eliminating the low quality documents
typically produced by impact printers
on flimsy multi-part stationery, DbForm
produces high quality documents, which
are easy to read and crystal clear. Its
ability to print the information in a
variety of fonts and sizes, as well as
to completely reformat business documents,
will transform the image of every organisation.
DbForm supports colour lasers, as well
as duplex printing (typically for terms
and conditions).
Fast Payback
DbForm users report a typical
pay-back period of three months, with
many organisations reporting a pay-back
within days.
DbForm is tightly integrated
with all the other modules from Version
One's e-business office automation suite:
DbFax, DbMail and DbArchive. Design business
documents with DbForm, then print as few
as possible - automatically fax and e-mail
out all purchase orders, statements, remittances,
etc., and save even more time and money.

DbForm offers the
following features:
- A conditionals facility
enables DbForm to test data and automatically
carry out appropriate actions. For example,
automatically print documents in different
languages, print different terms and
conditions depending on the supplier,
or, in a multi-company environment,
automatically print the appropriate
logo and contact details.
- Available on UNIX, Windows
NT and Windows 2000 platforms.
- Can produce documents
in black and white or colour - even
both simultaneously.
- No limit to the number
of copy documents - all produced automatically
and routed to the relevant printers
on the network.
- Advanced database look-ups
- unlike standard report writers, DbForm
can read any information on the documents
and use it to extract further information
from any databases on the network.
- Intelligent routing:
documents are automatically routed to
the most appropriate printer.
- Optional export module.
Officially approved by SITPRO (Simpler
Trade Procedures Board), part of the
DTI, which allows the production of
approved export documentation, in conjunction
with suitable accounting systems.

laser printers.
- Supports Zebra printers for high volumes of barcodes and labels.
- Integrates fully with
DbFax and DbMail, so that printed, e-mailed
and faxed documents all look identical.

multiple document delivery types. For
example, printing a despatch note for
the driver automatically faxes the shipping
agent with the shipping details and
automatically e-mails a complementary
message to the customer, informing them
of the goods being despatched.

output.
- Creates PDF documents.
