About OctoTools
OctoTools is a document management tool that encompasses Variable Data Printing Software, Forms Design, Report Formatting, Electronic Distribution, Printing, and Text to PDF conversion. Once set up, OctoTools runs automatically to provide high volume throughput without operator involvement. OctoTools is composed of two main modules; OctoDesigner and OctoToolsRTE (Run-Time Engine). Pre-printed and multi-part forms can be eliminated. Automated batch processing and distribution of forms is enabled. Printing, paper supplies, and associated overhead can be significantly reduced. Easy to implement barcodes including 25 styles, POSTNET and 2-D PDF417. MICR checks can be created on blank check stock. 128 bit Acrobat compatible encryption is available. For maximum security, each user or group can have its own key. Data is universally available electronically through Adobe supported PDF files. PDFs exactly match the print output since a single template is used for both printing and conversion.

SmartVizor
SmartVizor® Bill Statement Printing Solution Variable-data printing (VDP) (also known as variable-information printing (VIP) or VI) is a form of digital printing, including on-demand printing, in which elements such as text, graphics and images may be changed from one printed piece to the next, without stopping or slowing down the printing process and using information from a database or external file. For example, a set of personalized letters, each with the same basic layout, can be printed with a different name and address on each letter. Variable data printing is mainly used for direct marketing, customer relationship management, advertising, invoicing and applying addressing on self mailers, brochures or postcard campaigns. SmartVizor is a stand-alone, powerful and extremely easy to use variable-data-printing application. SmartVizor Suite is a software solution for creating personalized communications and professional one to one documents.
