ActivePDF DocConverter
Adds support for converting ZUGFeRD documents to PDF.
Features
- Updated installer: The DocConverter installer includes the following enhancements:
- Fewer screens and an option for an auto created DocConverter Service account.
- There are now two options for installing DocConverter: Express and Custom.
- Express: The quickest way to start converting documents.
- Custom: Customize your installation by selecting the converter(s) to use.
- Infrastructure upgrades: Error messages are more detailed, and new upgrades enhance DocConverter performance.
- Support for converting ZUGFeRD documents to PDF: DocConverter supports converting pre-processed ZUGFeRD documents to PDF/A3. The ZUGFeRD standard combines a PDF and an embedded XML file into one document, for better invoice handling and digital archiving. The combination provides flexibility for handling invoices, either through automated processes (where machines pull data from the XML file) or manually (in a human-readable PDF).
Note: DocConverter does not create ZUGFeRD-compliant documents; it takes ZUGFeRD documents that were already processed and converts them to PDF/A3 files. Follow the ZUGFeRD standard to pre-process the documents before using DocConverter.
