Aussie DocsCorp allies itself with DocAuto

David Kiefer, DocAuto's President and CEO, said the company had decided to discontinue development and sales for its MakePDF software to focus its efforts on matter-centric management products for Interwoven's WorkSite document management system.

“DocAuto will continue to support existing customers with active support agreements until the end of their support terms, but special transitional pricing has been arranged with DocsCorp to assist these customers in their transition to pdfDocs,” he said.

Kiefer claimed the MakePDF customer base will benefit from the arrangement as the DocsCorp offering will provide them with a broader range of products, functionality and even deeper integration into document management systems.

David Woolstencroft, DocsCorp VP sales and marketing, claimed the integration between pdfDocs and WorkSite makes creating and managing PDF documents faster and more efficient process for users.

According to Woolstencroft, a single right-click on an Interwoven document for example enables users to generate PDF documents within Interwoven WorkSite. Integration also means that external PDF documents can be imported into pdfDocs Desktop, where they can be modified or combined with other documents and saved into the WorkSite profile as a new version or related document.

"Our pdfDocs Solutions Suite offering covers PDF management, OCR, form filling and document comparison-all integrated into the Interwoven WorkSite document management system, said Woolstencroft."
